2016 Elton Self-Rooted Pinot Noir
94 points - Vinous
Made exclusively with wine grapes from Dick & Betty's original vines planted in 1983.
Complex, inviting and elegant, the wine opens with alluring aromas of forest floor, fresh herbs and bramble berries. The palate expresses deeper layers of earth, herbs, fruit and spices including marionberry, fig, red clay, baking spice, game and wild mushroom. This wine expands on the palate with juicy acidity that culminates in a lush, velvety texture with smooth subtle textures.
Peak drinkability: 2018 - 2028.
