The 2017 Bloom's Field Pinot Noir from Domaine de la Côte is an absolute stunner and may be the most compelling vintage yet. It instantly impresses as it opens to striking aromas of dark berries and strawberries, followed by nuances of forest floor, violets, black tea and and hints of black pepper all taking shape. The palate is incredibly focused, with a wonderful flavor profile of red berries that are joined by lovely earthy tones and streaks of salty minerals. This possesses a gorgeous texture, with silky tannins that glides effortlessly across the palate leading into a bright, yet succulent finish that lingers beautifully. The 2017 is elegant and sophisticated, displaying a wonderful expression of terroir and amazing purity of fruit. It is simply outstanding today and will continue to evolve beautifully for years to come. This is without question one of, if not the finest Bloom's Field to date and should not be missed.
