Argyle Nuthouse Reserve Series Pinot Noir

For those of you familiar with the nuthouse style you’ll know that on release these wines don’t always leap out of the glass they need time in the bottle to open up aromatically. Not the case with the 2009 nuthouse pinot noir! This wine is alive with aromas of darkest cherry cloves and cinnamon. It is no different on the palate-almost explosive in its expression of sweet juicy marionberry raspberry cordial and black cherry cobbler framed in subtle oak tannins. Definitely a big wine but a big wine with grace and elegance enough to lift you up and put a smile on your face. – argyle
