Chamisal Edna Valley Pinot Noir 2019

The 2019 Pinot Noir Edna Valley, matured for 11 months in 25% new French oak, has a medium ruby-purple color and a nose of blackberries and cranberries with nuances of forest floor, dried orange peel and Earl Grey tea leaves. The medium-bodied palate has a deep core of ripe red berry fruit, a soft, grainy texture and a long, layered finish. Drink date: 2022-2027. Score – 92. (Erin Brooks, robertparker.com, March 15, 2022)
