The Thomas George Baker Ridge Vineyard Estate Pinot Noir is a remarkable wine that showcases the true essence of a well-crafted Pinot Noir.On the nose, enticing aromas of ripe red cherries, blackberries, and hints of cranberries dance gracefully, accompanied by delicate floral notes of violets and roses. Subtle earthy undertones, such as forest floor and truffle, add complexity and depth to the aromatic profile.
Upon tasting, the wine reveals a harmonious balance between fruit, acidity, and tannins. The palate is greeted with luscious flavors of juicy raspberries, black plums, and a touch of pomegranate. These flavors are complemented by a touch of baking spices, such as cinnamon and clove, which add a delightful warmth to the wine.
The texture of this Pinot Noir is velvety and smooth, with well-integrated tannins that provide structure without overpowering the delicate nature of the varietal. The wine finishes with a lingering persistence, leaving a pleasant memory of its flavors and aromas.
