2019 MORLET FAMILY VINEYARDS PINOT NOIR EN FAMILLE

(96 points) "The En Famille Pinot Noir comes from a vineyard planted in 1990 to Goldridge soils, right next door to the “Coteaux Nobles” vineyard in Fort Ross-Seaview. A barrel sample, the 2019 Pinot Noir En Famille displays a medium ruby-purple color and fragrant notes of freshly crushed black cherries, black raspberries and mulberries, plus hints of candied violets, chocolate box and spearmint. The full-bodied, richly fruited palate is packed with juicy black berry flavors, framed by plush tannins and seamless freshness, finishing on a lingering cool-mint note." Wine Advocate
