“Royal ruby in color, the 2019 Rapp Ranch Carneros Pinot Noir opens with lively aromas of ripe Bing cherry, and strawberry pie that lead into delicate nuances of sweet baking spices, such as cinnamon, nutmeg and clove. On the palate, the fruit is darker and more savory with black cherry compote, ripe rhubarb, tea leaf and a savory umami herbaceousness. Supple, fine-grained velvety tannins structure the wine, while well-balanced acidity gives it elegance, and vibrancy. A beautiful expression of the Carneros appellation.”
