The 2017 Pinot Noir Mills Vineyard is slightly deeper colored (it's still translucent) and offers a gorgeous nose of ripe redcurrants, cherries, spring flowers, sappy forest floor, and ample spice nuances. With medium to full body, beautiful depth of fruit, and a seamless texture, it's another stunning Pinot Noir from this team that I'd be happy to have in the cellar.
The 2017 Pinot Noir Mills Vineyard is wonderfully expressive right out of the gate. Rose petals, mint, dried herbs, pine and blood orange are all beautifully lifted in a Pinot that marries aromatic brightness with fruit depth and a good deal of supporting structure. The freshness and vibrancy of the flavors make for a compelling, alluring Pinot. Mills, planted in 1984, is the one vineyard on the property planted on own-rooted vines.
