泰瑞貴族酒莊珍藏黑皮諾紅葡萄酒

點擊次數(shù)：9880

The 2010 Pinot Noir Reserva spent 8 months in French oak. It reveals an inviting bouquet of rose petal, raspberry, and toasty oak. This is followed by a medium-bodied wine in which the oak is well-integrated. Spicy, ripe, and surprisingly complex for a wine of its humble price, this tasty offering is meant for drinking over the next 2-3 years. It is an excellent value. Terra Noble is a family-owned bodega founded in 1992. It owns four farms in four different valleys as well managing a number of long-term grape contracts.Importer: Winebow, Inc, New York, NY; www.winebow.com

This is a crisp, spicy, fully oaked Pinot with raspberry, herb and toast aromas. Racy and zesty on the palate, and full of zingy, red-tilting pie cherry, plum and raspberry flavors. Turns oakier and toastier late, with caramel balanced by residual acidity on the finish. ——M.S.(12/31/2011)—— 87

Medium ruby red; expressive nose, hint of oak, cherry and raspberry flavors, velvety texture.

Dark and forceful with a chemical element and aromas of char, bacon, medicine and toasted marshmallow. The palate has size but hollowness, and the flavors bounce between sour plum and herbs. Picks up more tang and sourness as it goes along. ——M.S.(12/31/2010)—— 83
