Holesinsky Winery 2018 Pinot Noir
Published: December 16, 2020
This Pinot Noir from Idaho's Snake River Valley will be a hit with those who prefer a bolder, fruit-driven wine rather than the light and bright Pinots typical of Oregon. Its nearly opaque color is a clue to its boldness, appearing a medium-plus ruby. It presents pleasant florals, jammy red fruit and hints of mint and fragrant herbs on the nose. On the palate, it delivers rich notes of cherry-strawberry compote, a dusting of baking spices and enough tannins to reel it in with a finish adding cocoa to the mix.
