Rhys, Alpine Vineyard Pinot Noir other_regions Sweet and penetrating on theThe 2018 Pinot Noir Alpine Vineyard opens with striking, floral infused aromatics that give the wine presence and structure. Savory and finely cut, with superb delineation, and tons of depth, the Alpine is positively stellar today. Layers of fruit enshroud the tannins, making them barely perceptible. The 2018 is a stunning Pinot from Alpine, a site originally planted with 17 heritage clones. Antonio Galloni
