Re: Grandes vinos estadounidenses
Ver mensaje de Joaquin1965Te pongo la nota de cata de Erin Brooks para tranquilizarte sobre tu dispendio. Ya sabemos que las puntuaciones de Parker no necesariamente llevan a la satisfacción de todo el personal, pero entre eso, el 4.4 de la típica web popular y mi propio gusto personal creo que no te vas a quedar insatisfecho.

The 2021 Pinot Noir Freestone-Occidental is incredibly expressive and detailed! Its aromas open slowly from blueberry, rhubarb and cranberry to tones of bitter orange, amaro, mossy bark and lavender, continuing to reveal new accents with each return to the glass. Light-bodied, it floods the mouth with fragrant, detailed fruit supported by chalky tannins and focused, shimmery acidity that calls you in for another sip. It has a haunting finish loaded with spicy layers, and it's very difficult to put this delicious wine down. Drink it now for its transparency and perfume, or allow it to develop savory complexity in bottle over the next decade.
Ah! Y otra cosa interesante respecto del debate que tenemos últimamente entre extraídos/no-extraídos: el grado alcohólico del 2020 es del 13.3%. Es un vino relativamente sutil y elegante, no la típica bomba americana. Que conste que ofrecí abrir una botella durante el Holocausto! ;)
