Holloran Pinot Noir Eola-Amity Hills 2022
A magnificent value Pinot Noir that punches waaaay above its weight
class, the Holloran 2022 is as classic as it gets. Bill Holloran
employs organic and biodynamic practices in the vineyards culling the
most pristine fruit. The blend here is a mixture mainly of their
spectacular single vineyard parcels, Le Pavillon and La Chenaie along
with a couple others sites. The volcanic soils render Pinot with
ethereal qualities yet with great presence as well. Spending 11 months
in only 20% new French oak with the rest older barrels, the 2022 sings
with bright raspberry and Queen Anne cherry notes along with hints
marjoram, anise and pomegranate. Sneaky long finishing and very
captivating, enjoy this now through 2030.
