2015 Arista Pinot Noir Two Birds

Slightly more expensive, the 2015 Pinot Noir Two Birds Estate Vineyard comes from the Russian River Valley and was completely destemmed and aged 12 months in 40% new French oak. Red and black fruits, spice, dried earth, and hints of mint all emerge from this beautifully clean, polished, elegant effort. With fine, fine tannin and a clean finish, not to mention perfect balance, it's a gorgeous effort that's going to drink nicely for a decade or more.
