Swan Terrace Pinot, Rhys Vineyards

Note:

The 2019 Pinot Noir Swan Terrace emerges from 1.5 acre parcel in Alpine planted with the Swan clone of Pinot Noir. It is, as always, distinguished by bright, red toned fruit. In 2019, the Swan Terrace has a bit more tannic grip than is often the case, mostly a reflection of a cooler year. That won’t be an issue in time, but it does rob the wine of some of the charm it often has in its youth. The 100% whole clusters are not especially evident, as all the elements are so harmonious in their balance.
