Coelho Winery Paciencia Estate Pinot noir 09

Review:

2008 Wine Advocate - 91 points - The 2008 Pinot Noir Paciência Estate was aged in 15% new oak. It exhibits an enticing nose of earth/underbrush, cinnamon, clove, rose petal, and an amalgam of red and black fruits. Medium-bodied, it has plenty of succulent fruit packed into its frame, nicely balanced with ripe tannin and acidity. With excellent volume, balance, and length, it will easily evolve for 2-3 years and provide considerable pleasure from 2012 to 2020. - Jay Miller
