Description

The 2019 Bentrock is a bold, silky Pinot that exhibits classic Pinot characteristics.  The nose immediately declares that you are drinking a Pinot Noir with layered aromas of dark cherry, raspberry, plum, spice (nutmeg, touch of anise) and earth. Upon drinking, the entire palate is engaged with a blend of flavors including ripe black cherry, boysenberry jam and blackberry, hints of vanilla, cola and wood, along with a nice warm spice, light oak and pepper finish. There is the right balance of acid that delivers a smooth, silky and sexy drinking experience.  Drink: Now – 2029
