2014 Scallop Shelf Estate Pinot Noir
Buying options
Tasting notes
The most complete of these wines, the 2014 Pinot Noir Estate Scallop Shelf is the most aromatically intense and sensual of the Peay estate Pinots. A host of sweet red berry, raspberry, orange peel, mint and cinnamon give the Scallop Shelf its distinctive feminine personality. Silky and gracious on the palate, the 2014 is vivid and exceptionally polished. Another year or two in bottle will only help the wine be at its most expressive. Overall, readers should expect an understated Pinot built on finesse.
