Talley 2019 Pinot Noir Rosemary Vineyard Arroyo Grande 95 Points

Jeb Dunnuck 95 Points: “Darker berry fruits as well as camphor, leather, white flowers, and underbrush nuances all emerge from the 2019 Pinot Noir Rosemary’s Vineyard, a medium-bodied, beautifully balanced, bright, almost racy Pinot Noir that will benefit from 2-4 years of bottle age. All destemmed and aged 15 months in 35% new French oak, it should have well over a decade of longevity.”

Winery Notes: “Rosemary’s Pinot Noir is the most elegant expression of Talley Vineyards. Planted in 1987, Rosemary’s Vineyard is climatically our coolest estate vineyard and produces a nuanced Pinot Noir with refreshing energy and approachable minerality. The 2019 vintage has a powerful elegance with lingering notes of Bing cherry, black tea and nectarine.”
