14’ HDV YSABEL Pinot Noir.
Van der Kemp Vineyard(30 acres) sit high on top of Sonoma Mt.

Hi streak of acidity at first. Tart & tangy…Dried raspberries, ripe cherries, black tea, forest pine, asian spices emerge from this plush finish. Needs a 3-4 hour decanting.

Edit- This will remain memorable long after the bottle is gone.

This was actually chosen as the wine of the night by a few at our table. However, I must humbly disagree. I think the Alexana Had more going on with a very boisterous flavor profile. However, I would not kick this out of bed for eating crackers! LOL

Really looking forward to seeing the progression of HdV’s pinot noirs and chardonnays. Specifically this, their Sonoma Mountain Pinot Ysabel. Mountain fruit gets all this juice concentration with a presence of minerals that’s seen in this wine. I’m impressed by the winemaker’s ability to showcase all of this tension and strength, but maintain the integrity of how delicate a pinot is meant to be.

Nice Pinot. Lean, red fruit with a hint of vanilla and spice.
