Atticus Pinot Noir 2015 Review
Shh! Don’t tell the folks at Atticus that this wine tastes like it costs a lot more than $28. It’s a very profound style of Pinot, with a darker color, and concentrated, complex aromas of bramble fruit and meadows. Flavors include blackberries, sage, and Irish soda bread. The texture is medium and a little dirty, in a good way. While it leans toward a richer expression of Pinot, it’s still very balanced and elegant.
