Dogwood & Thistle Oppenlander Vineyard Pinot Noir 2018 Review
This is how it’s done! Pinot has so much to offer when the alcohol and oak are in check. Bright berry fruit, along with some comfy depth. The acidity is just right, balancing the wine from its core. It smells like cherries and mocha with a whiff of soil, but this wine is all about texture.
