2010 Friends & Family Weir Vineyard Yorkville Highlands Pinot Noir
14.8%
alc., 75 cases. Contains all clones from the vineyard: 38% Rochioli, 25% “DRC,”
20% Pommard, and 12% 2A. Winemaker Jason Drew.
·
Moderate reddishpurple
color in the glass. The nose is crazy good with deep, penetrating aromas
of wild berries and spice. Soft and smooth on the palate with layered flavors of
darker berries and plum sauce with a slight hint of oak in the background. Rich
and sappy and definitely on the ripe side, but a delight to drink. Good tension,
beautifully crafted, and sporting the signature Weir finish. Lucky family and
friends. Drink or hold.
Score: 93.
