Lots of volume and intensity can be found in the 1998 Pinot Noir Thieriot Vineyard. Sadly, only 68 cases were produced. It boasts a dark ruby color in addition to a gorgeous nose of sweet blackberry and cherry fruit meshed with plums, rose petals, and spicy oak. Medium-bodied, with a juicy mid-section and excellent purity and symmetry, it is a complex, elegant Pinot to consume over the next 7-8 years.
