Joseph Phelps Freestone Pinot Noir 2014
The bouquet is alluring, offering notes of cherry, fresh flowers, and spices. The silky smooth palate is densely packed, showcasing purity and precision, with notes of black cherry, raspberries, and Darjeeling tea. This is a deliciously sophisticated new Pinot that will thrill benefit from decanting prior to 2019 and should enhance a wide array of menus through 2012.
