2021 Argot Kanzler Vyd Russian River Valley Pinot Noir

TWI95 The 2021 Pinot Noir Kanzler Vineyard is deep ruby-purple in color. It explodes with bombastic scents of juicy blackberries, black raspberries, and tar with nuances of cracked black pepper, espresso, and crushed rocks. The full-bodied palate is laden with black fruit preserves flavors and savory nuances, framed by fine-grained tannins and lovely freshness, finishing long and spicy.
WS94 Alluring, with a mix of gently mulled red and black cherry and mulberry fruit melding steadily with black tea, singed wood spice, chaparral and savory notes as this moves along, all while maintaining definition and understated energy. Drink now through 2029. 225 cases made.
Estate Notes: A nose of significant aromatic swagger—unctuous black fruits lay a foundation over which blue fruits, cherry skin and damp conifer forest sparkle and dance. Pillowy soft textures introduce the palate to vibrant red fruits lifting layers, upon layers of dark earth and pie spice. Tannins assert themselves through the mid-palate, providing delightful freshness to the abundance of fruit unspooling down the palate, as milk chocolate and roasted coffee beans echo deep into the finish. A wine of undeniable charm, poise and nuance, that can not help but to display its pedigree.
