This is one of the most structured pinot noir from USA. You get the juiciness and early accessibility of a new world pinot and the strong backbone of the old world. This wine is from the Santa Cruz Mountains (near Palo Alto/San Jose and similar location as Rhys and Ridge). And Mount Eden's second wine was Prince Harry and Meghan's wedding wine (This is the first wine!! Even better!)

"The 2017 Pinot Noir Estate offers savory, layred aromas of earth and laurel, charcuterie and orange peel, with amaro-laced red and black berries. The palate is grainy and fresh, with a kaleidoscope of spices and a very long finish. It's incredibly appealing now but will benefit from a long decant. 963 cases produced." - Erin Brooks

"The 2017 Pinot Noir is a very pretty, open-knit wine. Crushed rose petal, sweet red berry, mint, cedar, and sweet pipe tobacco give the 2017 striking aromatic presence. In 2017, the Mount Eden Pinot is a decidedly forward, silkly wine that looks like it will offer its best drinking sooner rather than later. The 2017 was done with 33% whole clusters and saw 50% new barrels." - Antonio Galloni
