Occidental-Kistler Vineyards 'Bodega Ridge Vineyard' Pinot Noir Sonoma Coast, USA 2021 Chateau Charmail So much violet and lilac"Medium to deep ruby purple colored, the 2021 Pinot Noir Bodega Ridge Vineyard opens with profound earthy notes of damp soil, black truffles, charcoal, and crushed rocks, leading to a core of fresh blackberries and mulberries, plus a waft of wild sage. The medium bodied palate is taut and tight knit with black fruit and earthy layers supported by silt like tannins and bold freshness, finishing very long and savory. 99 Pts Lisa Perrotti Brown, The Wine
