Ryan Cochrane 2016 Pinot Noir

"Always one of the more compelling bottlings from the region each year, this single-vineyard expression shows smoked thyme, roasting game, light raspberry, tea leaves and dried purple flowers on the nose. Rose petal, Chinese five spice and cardamom pod flavors make for an exotic palate, set against a tart red-fruit backdrop." - Matt Kettmann, Wine Enthusiast

"Moderate light garnet color in the glass. The nose is giving, with pleasant aromas of cherry, walnut and cardamom. Striking mid weight raspberry fruited core with good length in the mouth and on the finish. Juicy, with good vibrancy and a hint of complimentary oak. The raspberry really leaps out in this wine, something I rarely encounter." - The Prince of Pinot
