Lutum Durell Vineyard Pinot Noir 2014

$59.95

...Beams of tannin give the wine its super-distinctive shape and size. Bright red and purplish-hued fruits, smoke, tobacco, licorice, game and spices give the Durell an element of exoticism that is impossible to miss. Powerful and structured to the core... Antonio Galloni, Vinous Media

My winner of the day in terms of Pinot. The fruit seemed incredibly complex but subdued here, leading me to believe that this one will blossom in 8-10 years.
