點擊次數：3309

The 2012 Pinot Noir Block 5 comes from a parcel on the "west hill" planted with the Dijon 777 clone. It was picked October 13 and sees 56% new French oak. There's crushed strawberries and redcurrant on the nose with touches of vanilla coming through with aeration, accompanied by wet clay scents. The palate is medium-bodied with soft tannins that render this Block 5 quite approachable, perhaps a little dusty toward the finish and slightly attenuated. It needs a little more flesh and depth, though maybe it will gain substance with bottle age.
