De Loach Vineyards – Pinot Noir 2016, Heritage Collection – California

The nose is fruity and offers a small pulpiness as well as a fine richness. It reveals notes of creamy black plum, cornflower, crushed blackberry, small notes of vanilla pod associated with touches of raspberry, small crushed fruits, fine hints of hazelnut and a discreet hint of caramelization. The palate is fruity and offers minerality, fleshiness, a certain small unctuosity as well as minerality and a small acidulous frame. On the palate this wine expresses notes of pulpy violet plum, cornflower, small notes of fleshy blueberry associated with touches of crushed strawberry, crushed cassis as well as fine hints of lily, caramelization, vanilla, a very discreet hint of hazelnut, a subtle hint of minerality (in the background) and acidulous redcurrant. Good length.
