Big Basin Vineyards Pinot Noir 2018

The vibrant, spicy red fruit, beautiful silky texture and mouthfeel and a finish that is long and sustained. The aromatics jump out of the glass and the wine that follows is equally expressive and compelling.

This is every bit the equal of some of their single vineyard cuvées at an 'appellation wine' price. It is drinking beautifully now, but will certainly come together more with time in bottle. If you have the patience to cellar wines, then this is a wine that will pay you dividends over the next 5 - 15 years.
