2013 Cristom Pinot Noir Louise Vineyard

 


Tasty wine from a less than heralded vintage. Give it LOTS of air. Fruit is really nice upfront with a lengthy finish that slides into a bit of inexplicable heat for only 13.5% abv. I'm pretty sure I've encountered that heat on the finish of other Cristom pinot noirs... 
Paired nicely with grilled rack of lamb and duck confit sweet potato hash with shallots.
