The 2013 Pinot Noir Block 7 is one of the first to be picked by Dick Shea and is the only 2013 from Shea that is over 14% alcohol. It has an aromatic bouquet with dark berry fruit, a faint sea-spray influence, truffle and touches of dried orange peel. The palate is medium-bodied with a svelte texture, nicely judged acidity, layers of sappy red cherry and wild strawberry notes with a splash of balsamic towards the finish. This is a refined and elegant 2013 Pinot Noir from Shea Wine Cellar – just beautiful.
