Mimi's Mind Eola - Amity Hills Pinot Noir 2022

9.5

My favorite at the dinner with Lingua Franca founder, Larry Stone. Mimi’s Mind was complex, beautiful, nuanced and everything I enjoy about Pinot Noir. Seductive yet powerful. I want this one with some age. — 3 months ago

@Deborah M do you feel the wines have remained the same post the acquisition of the brand?

Deborah M

@Ira Schwartz I do not have a great deal of experience with their wines but I was sitting next to someone who did and he thought they were still very special. He told me that the Pinots only get better with age.

@Deborah M Thank you for the quick response and I do agree with your dinner mate. I’m sitting on my ‘17 and ‘ 18 Mimi for now.
