El Molino, Rutherford Pinot Noir other_regions_italy Blackberry and blueberry aromas andThe 2014 Pinot Noir offers up hints of spice, tobacco, incense, dried cherry, and leather. Medium in body, with lovely energy and fine focus, the 2014 has aged well. I would not push my luck too much further here. It's a lovely wine, but some of the fruit has started to drop out.
