CALERA Pinot Noir, Mt. Harlan 'de Villiers' 2012

This gorgeous Pinot Noir from Calera comes from the de Villiers vineyard in Mt. Harlan. The nose is deep, pure and youthful, delivering a wonderful mix of black cherries, strawberries and cocoa followed by undertones of soil, woodsmoke and a touch of toasty new wood. On the palate this shows excellent depth with a complex profile of ripe fruit, superb soil inflection and a long, expansive finish. Today, this is already quite appealing and should only continue to evolve over the next decade. (Best 2016-2026) - March, 2015 (MD)
