Tasting notes
The 2020 Pinot Noir Rosemary's Vineyard is a very classy wine. Soft and translucent, the 2020 offers up sweet cherry, mint, blood orange, cinnamon and rose petal. This mid-weight, beautifully perfumed Pinot is all class. (AGH)

Last (but not least) of the single vineyards, the 2020 Pinot Noir Rosemary's was all destemmed and brought up in 37% new barrels. Its translucent darker ruby color is followed by a rocking nose of black raspberries, toasted spices, dried flowers, and iron. Rich, medium to full-bodied, and concentrated on the palate, it has ripe tannins, a layered, multi-dimensional texture, and a great finish. It was my favorite in the lineup and is a straight-up gorgeous Pinot Noir readers will love. I continue to love these Chardonnay and Pinot Noir releases from Talley Vineyards, all of which come from the cooler-climate Edna Valley, San Luis Obispo, and Arroyo Grande regions.
