Tasting notes
Like with the Alder Springs Chardonnay, the 2013 Alesia Pinot Noir Alder Springs Vineyard will be the last Pinot Noir from Rhys from this vineyard. It's another terrific red under this label though, that delivers tons of Pinot Noir charm in its pretty and exotic bouquet of sweet red fruits, incense and spring flowers. Light on its feet, graceful and lively, with beautiful elegance and polish, it will drink nicely through 2023.

Dark red cherry, plum and spice give the 2013 Pinot Noir Alder Springs Vineyard much of its juicy, up-front Pinot. Sweet floral, saline and earthy notes follow, adding layers of nuance. This flashy Pinot is a terrific choice for drinking over the next few years.
