Goodfellow Family Cellars Heritage Blend No. 16 Lewman Vineyard Pinot Noir 2019 (750ML)

95 VM / 95 JD / 94 WA

Shimmering garnet. Vibrant red fruit, floral and exotic spice scents, along with hints of incense and musky earth. Sappy, energetic and penetrating on the palate, offering intense raspberry and cherry flavors and building blood orange and candied rose nuances. Delivers a serious punch but comes off lithe. The impressively long, finely detailed finish features polished tannins and reverberating floral and spice notes.-- Josh Raynolds, Vinous Media

Sourced from the Lewman Vineyard in the Eola-Amity Hills AVA, the 2019 Pinot Noir Heritage No. 16 pours a deep ruby hue and is highly expressive of wild roses, red cherry, menthol, and cinnamon. Medium-bodied, it has fine tannins and a linear, more complete feel, with notes of orange peel citrus and toasted cedar on the long finish. It’s a very attractive wine to enjoy over the next 8-10 years.-Audrey Frick, JebDunnuck
