The 2012 Pinot Noir La Colina Vineyard comes from a vineyard populated by Pommard and 114 clones planted in 1999 on rich Jory soil, aged for 16 months in 19% new French barrels. There is a little more opulence on the nose compared to Torii Mors' other 2012 cuvées, with small black cherries, bilberry and hints of violet coming through. The palate follows through with plush, rounded tannin that create a smooth and sensual texture. There is (again) impressive purity here with just a pinch of cracked black pepper lending required edginess on the finish. I would actually give this 12 months in bottle just to settle down a little.
