L'Usine - Annapolis Ridge Vineyard Pinot Noir 2018 (750ml) Venezia GiuliaWinemaker Notes Clearly the darkest of the three wines, the 2018 Annapolis Ridge Vineyard shows a dark garnet core with a neon cardinal rim. Aromatically, the wine offers notes of clove, cola and sweet black cherry. On the palate, prominent acidity takes over and assists by throwing wild blueberry, olallieberry and freshly picked tarragon across the tongue. The finish is framed by an intriguing texture of soft velvet and dust paired with crisp acidity
and a lovely hint of cocoa

The tasting sensation is with me still after 30 minutes of tasting the wine…
and refreshing with a long finish that is supported by supple tannin and beautifully integrated French Oak
This carries to a medium-bodied red blend with good overall balance
It opens with heady aromas of dog rose
taut yet lifted by violets and wild mountain herbs
with some savory flavors from the Syrah this wine is always a crowd pleaser
Good reserve and freshness to this Champagne
