Phillips Hill Pinot Noir Anderson Valley

Delicious. This is their blended PN bottling with fruit from 3 vineyards: Roma's, Valley Foothills and Day Ranch. Day Ranch is the ranch surrounding the tasting room and winery. It doesn't have the same sophistication as the other PNs we tried (a couple now resting in the cellar) but it's yummy. It's drinking well now, but IMO it could go another 4 or 5 years without a problem. Served with roast turkey.

After one hour decant�bright, pretty, lean bramble fruit, cranberry, pomegranate, plum, salty coastal fog. Friendly with lots of different food.

Nicely balanced. A bit on the green side, with acidity to match. Some tannins too. Light in body.

This wine is light to medium magenta in the glass with a degree of clarity. The nose shows cranberry, subtle but jammy cherry, and cola. The cranberry continues onto the palate, and there�s a herbal note on the finish. Light tannins and acidity. Overall a light, fresh, and pleasant wine.
