The 2013 Pinot Noir La Colina Vineyard was picked on October 2 and aged for 24 months in 27% new French oak, with a racking in May before blending and a second in August. It has an attractive bouquet with brambly red fruit, ferrous notes, undergrowth and a touch of orange rind. The palate is medium-bodied with crisp tannin, edgy red berry fruit laced with orange rind and a touch of spice; there is commendable density towards the finish, even if it is missing the precision of some of its peers.
