The Margerum Barden Pinot Noir 2013 is an elegant, luxurious red wine with a cornucopia of complex flavors. Aromas of black cherry, beetroot, and rhubarb abound on the nose. A secondary bouquet of baking spices, cinnamon, nutmeg, and juniper provide nuance. The palate is rich and dark, with savory flavors of olive, soy, and ink. Fruitier flavors of dark cherry and liqueur cherry provide lovely contrast. The acidity is excellent and the tannins are soft and supple. Enjoy this vintage now and for years to come.
