The nose evokes small black fruits (blackberry

so it was still in wood on the lees when I tasted it

Mind-blowing on the palate

Failla Occidental Ridge Vineyard Pinot Noir, Sonoma Coast, USA 2022 Malvasia - Trebbiano rather citric and slightly oakyThis intense Pinot brings on the sultry aromas, with baked cherry, toasted nori, black tea and grilled mushroom notes on the complex and evolving nose. The palate is equally vivacious, with the plush tannins balancing nervy acidity and flavours of crushed blackberry, cola and cedar. Give this a few years in the cellar and it will dance beautifully with anything mushroom or truffle scented. 94 Pts Wine Enthusiast
