Rhys Vineyards Alesia Anderson Valley Pinot Noir, California, USA 2017 Chateau Chauvin Just a hint of volatile

Just a hint of volatile acidity that also serves to add a bit of lift to the liqueur-like aromas of plum

Big potential

with indigenous yeasts selected from their own vineyards and matured in used French oak barrels for six months but not for 100% of the volume

but the body an weight is very much old vine Grenache

I recommend checking in on at least one bottle to enjoy the intensity of its primary fruit

Rhys Vineyards Alesia Anderson Valley Pinot Noir, California, USA 2017 Chateau Chauvin Just a hint of volatileThe 2017 Alesia Pinot Noir Anderson Valley is pale to medium ruby purple with a pretty nose of autumn leaves, bark and cinnamon stick with black cherries, blackberries, raspberry preserves and woodsmoke. The palate is light to medium bodied, delicate and earthy with juicy acidity and a soft frame, fleshing out to sweet berry flavors on the long finish. 91 Pts Wine Advocate
