I tasted two Pinot Noirs from the 2013 vintage. The 2013 Pinot Noir Two Brothers sees about 25% new oak, where it rests for 18 months prior to being bottled without filtration. About 30% whole clusters are used. This is a spicy, red fruit-dominated Pinot Noir, with notes of baking spices, pomegranate, sweet and sour cherries, but soft tannins and a dark ruby color. It is elegant, Côte de Beaune-like, and best drunk over the next 4-5 years.
