Felton Road Calvert Pinot Noir

Another sensational Felton Road from the deep glacial soils of Calvert, effortlessly elegant, resolutely medium-bodied and light on its feet, capturing seamless harmony while sacrificing nothing in definition, structure and enduring energy. The bouquet is ethereal and alluring, alive with violet perfume, cherry kernel, mixed spice and black cherries. The palate delivers wonderful depth and intensity of black cherry and black plum fruit, fragrant, poised and laced with layers of exotic spice complexity that linger on a profound finish. Finely textured, firmly structured tannins and well integrated acidity promise great things in years to come. $70 at WineStar.
