2019 Peay Vineyards Pinot Noir Savoy Vineyard 750ml
Savoy Vineyard in the Anderson Valley of Mendocino County is one of California’s most highly regarded, classic Pinot Noir vineyards and for good reason. The wines are seductive and have concentration and depth while speaking loudly of their specific place. The 2019 Savoy has an abundance of blackberry, dark cherry, and plum aromas and remains light on its feet due to good acidity. The “Mendocino spice” folks talk about in Anderson Valley Pinot noir has a turned earth and brown spice components that counter-balance the fruit expression of Savoy. I think Vanessa’s ability to keep the wine upbeat and unencumbered by extraction and heavy-handed winemaking allows the essence of the Savoy Vineyard to shine in the wine. RP 93
