WTN: 2007 Domestic Pinot Noirs - one delicious, one not so
Posted: Mon Feb 25, 2013 11:07 amOpened two Pinot Noirs last night.
Started with the 2007 St. Innocent Pinot Noir Justice Vineyard that had so many green and even moldy aromas and flavors that I wrote it off as corked. Not really sure that's what it was, but the wine was a train wreck.
The I opened the 2007 Alesia Pinot Noir Green Valley that was simply delicious. It showed a lot of very primary fruit, but also an earthy bass note that really fleshed out the wine. Loved this.
