"Matured in neutral wood, the 2016 Pinot Noir Older Barrels derives from Ashley's Vineyard and offers up notes of candied peel, plums, cinnamon and sweet red berries. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, supple and silky, with an expansive attack, excellent mid-palate depth and a long, sapid finish. More understated and savory in profile than the other vineyard-designate Pinot Noir bottlings, this was also one of my favorites." - www.robertparker.com
