Well-proportioned, with a mix of herb and cedar laced dark berry, anise, and fresh, loamy earth, this could use a year or so to soften. The tannins are fine-grained, and the flavors push through with ease. | 93 points Wine SpectatorIncredible Purity of Fruit. The 2013 growing season along California's True Sonoma Coast was incredibly even, providing enough sun exposure to ripen the Pinot Noir clusters just enough to create a beautiful expression of the Aston Estate. The long, warm days and cool nights allowed the grapes to achieve superb balance right before harvest... showing beautiful notes of dark berries and anise with a lace of cedar running through the nose. On the palate the wine is broad and deep with distinguished texture that keeps you coming back for more. | Aston Estate
