First time since summer and what a great wine and value. Aromas of cranberry, cranberry bog, spice, mineral and mid to early season cherry. Lovely aromatic precision. Some tree bark and citrus rind as well. Gorgeous palate full of mid season cherry fruit that has terrific sweetness and thrust. So pure, such tiny berry fruit intensity and wonderful sap and finesse. 2020 was such a turning point for Steinmet’s Pinot Noirs. So fresh and energetic and grippy but ripe tannins. Wonderful and let’s see what air does. Ah, great finesse and increasing suppleness and sweetness with air. Just melts in the mouth.

Red fruits, spice, slate. kind of Volnay like. Very haunting and wet stones and wet earth. Palate has good red fruits, cranberry, strawberry. nice acidify, great energy. Very good and balanced. Floral and very nice nose. High acid, red fruited, very pure, excellent balance. Nose is getting a honeyed element. Really really good. Nice supple texture allied with very bright acids. This is a wake me up wine.
