DK Grail Pinot Noir Rosella’s 2021

Dan Kosta’s Tasting Notes:
“This vintage is showing the maturity of Rosella’s Vineyard and how 30 years have been very complimentary to the vines. In its youth, this vineyard offered bright, crunchy red fruit, with a signature of citrus peel. As I have experienced many wines from this vineyard over the years, I am enjoying the evolution of these characteristics. Those specific flavors are still there, but they have moved to the background as darker, rounder fruits have taken center stage. I find pomegranate, cherry, and wild strawberry with hints of ruby red grapefruit blend together to create a seamless, matriarchal Pinot Noir.”

“Subtlety and grace are the hallmarks of this layered, supple wine from Dan Kosta. Opens with mulled cherries and cinnamon, then fresh plums, dark cherries and light baking spices make a seamless palate. Full-bodied but subdued, integrated and fascinating in flavors, with a long finish. Drink or hold.” - James Suckling
