Adelsheim Quarter Mile Lane Pinot Noir 2011 1.5 L

Bright red. Vibrant, high-pitched aromas of fresh red berries, rose oil and Asian spices, with suave smoke and vanilla accents gaining strength with air. Nervy and penetrating on entry, then fleshier and showing more depth in the mid-palate. Sweet raspberry and cherry-cola flavors of impressive clarity linger on a silky, appealingly spicy finish that shows a hint of dusty tannins.
