2016 Calera Reed Vineyard Mt. Harlan Pinot Noir

14.2% alc., pH 3.71, TA 0.63, 375 cases, $75. Yield 1.0 tons per acre. Harvest Brix 25.4º. Aged 17 months in French oak barrels, 30% new. · Moderately light garnet color in the glass. Aromatically pleasing, with scents of fresh dark cherry and boysenberry, spice and a modicum of toasty oak. Dark red cherry and purple berry fruits are featured in this mid-weight styled wine that is sleek in the mouth and finishes long with waves of strawberry and boysenberry fruit. The wine displays exquisite balance. Much more engaging when tasted the following day from a previously opened and re-corked bottle. A superb wine. Score: 94. Reviewed August 29, 2020
