2011 DION Old Vines Limited Release Chehalem Mountains Pinot Noir

13.5% alc., 48 cases, $40. · Light garnet color in the glass. Pleasing scents of dark cherry, purple berry and vanilla cream. Lighter in weight but brimming with dark red strawberry, raspberry and black cherry fruit flavors framed by gossamer tannins. Silky in the mouth, with a remarkably long finish. A great aged Pinot Noir from a challenging vintage that has reached its apogee. Score: 93. Reviewed May 30, 2022
