A thick, rich opening of
wild strawberry preserve and raspberry tea leads
the way to a midpalate of grippy texture and lifted
acidity in this impressive wine. Savory seasonings
of black tea, forest floor and cardamom echo and
add to the wine’s varietal complexity. (VB)

The 2018 Pinot Noir Wester Reach has a medium ruby color and a nose of cranberry sauce, blackberries, cinnamon stick, forest floor, black tea leaves and accents of potpourri. Made entirely with free-run juice, the medium-bodied palate bursts with juicy berry fruits, perfumed and fresh, finishing very long. (EB)

As with the Chardonnay, the 2018 Pinot Noir Wester Reach goes out to distribution only as opposed to being offered through the mailing list. As such, it's made in reasonable quantities, and there are 4,000 cases of the 2018. Lots of spice box, foresty, earthy notes, spring flowers, and a core of black raspberry fruit all give way to a more medium-bodied, elegant, silky wine that has no hard edges, ripe tannins, and the class to shine for 7-8 years. It's a beautiful wine as well as a terrific introduction into the wines of DuMOL. This was easily the finest set of releases I have tasted from winemaker Andy Smith.
