Spy Valley Pinot Noir 2012

Robust, gamey, herbal-tinged dark-berry fruits charge out of the glass here. Dark cherry and plum with a healthy dose of spice and roasting meats. Excellent lively fruit entry on the palate which fans out into a raft of quartz-like tannins and sexy, gamey nuance. Plenty of structure and flavor here to keep the fussiest of pinot lovers happy. Drink now. Score - 92. (James Suckling, jamessuckling.com, Oct. 6, 2014)
