Elk Cove 2021 Mount Richmond Pinot Noir
This is Elk Cove's largest estate vineyard with over 150 acres in vine. Now fully mature it presents a complex, multi-layered wine that sets the lush Pommard fruit against the more precise and deep flavors of the Dijon clones. A mix of blackberries, marionberries and blueberries, backed with juicy acids, this rolls into a juicy finish with black cherry, tobacco and a hint of licorice. 1184 cases; 13.5%; $70 (Yamhill-Carlton)
