Fort Ross - Seaview Sonoma County Pinot Noir 2018

9.3

2018 vintage. Impressively smooth. Medium body. Decanted and tasted after 30 minutes. Good length of finish and smooth throughout the palate push. Consistent style and producer. Personally want more tannins/dirt/earth but this isn’t playing that game. Verry nice for the game it is playing. 11.8.24. — 13 days ago

Not sure who told me about these guys but agree it’s been good.

@Norman Gennaro Not super extracted like a Marcassin but exactly zero speedbumps.

Medium deep lemon yellow , touch of gold . Quite ripe citrus fruits , orange rind , peach , ripe rear, , honey . On the palate quite rich and round with a judicious amount of residual sugar , just balanced acidity and with the citrus , honied orange rind , peach notes from nose. Slightly heavy alcohol , quite intense with ok honied length . Misses a little freshness perhaps but should age quite well , possibly more interesting and less one dimensional in a few years . Drinkable now but will last well a further 10 years . — 5 months ago
