Domaine Carneros Estate Pinot Noir 2019 Review
When Pinot Noir works in this cool Napa region it just hits right and in a way unique to Carneros. Significant depth balanced by active natural acidity is the standard and this bottle provides these spot on. Rich cherry liqueur and strawberry preserve with a slight herby layer on the nose (Maybe some blueberry?). The palate has the nice roundness of good depth and a textured mouthfeel yet is lifted up just slightly by vibrant acidity.
