2013 Rochioli Riverblock Pinot Noir

Dark cherry notes lead from the glass and are leavened by hints of dried thyme and mandarin orange juice. The power-packed palate reveals this wines true heritage and breed. There is an immediate lift of raspberry on the entry and then the fine, expressive tannins unfold and saturate the palate. Wood spices and a prominent finish of clove and Russian caravan tea round out the wine… a superb Rochioli Riverblock Pinot Noir, which will require a bit of patience.
