Baileyana, Edna Valley (California) Pinot Noir 2016

Jan 30, 2018

By Robert Whitley

Winemaker Christian Roguenant exhibits his deft hand with this stunning Pinot Noir from the Edna Valley. It sings with notes of dark cherry, spice and woodsmoke. On the palate the wine is concentrated and rich without losing the silky elegance and for which this grape variety is prized. Fresh and beautifully balanced, it is a wine to drink now or hold for a few years. The quality is sensational for the price, for Pinot Noir of this ilk routinely retails for $60 and up.  A Platinum award winner at the 2018 Winemaker Challenge International Wine Competition.
