Albatross Ridge, Carmel Valley (Monterey County) Pinot Noir 2013

Jul 11, 2016

By Robert Whitley

 This Monterey County pinot is not typical of the which, which routinely produces full-bodied, rich pinot noirs that are in vogue. Cuvee Vivienne is more in the European mold, a model of restraint though certainly not short on flavor. This vintage delivers notes of strawberry and raspberry and shows a leafy backnote that is quite attractive.
