“The MacPhail Anderson Creek Pinot Noir 2012 display aromas and flavors of bright red fruits, led by Bing cherry and joined by black cherry, plum, and some jammy strawberry. More than a hint of the tartness typical of Anderson Valley shows, alongside earthiness and minerality graced by oak spice and lovely cinnamon. Dive into this one now, but boy, I’m betting this red wine is an ager. We’ll be talking about this one for quite a while.”
