Antonio Galloni
The 2019 Pinot Noir Golden Mean is an exciting, vibrant wine pulsing with energy. It`s not the most obvious Pinot in the range, but the Golden Mean sizzles with tension. Red berry fruit, white pepper, mint and chalk lend a gorgeous top register of aromas and flavors. The Golden Mean is a blend of Pommard and Swan clones, done with about 15% whole clusters. 96 points

The 2019 Pinot Noir Golden Mean comes from Swan and Pommard clone vines and was made with 15% whole cluster. Medium ruby-purple, it opens with touches of iodine that segue to rich black fruits and licorice. The palate is plush and silky with loads of floral character on the finish. It`s youthfully wound and will improve over the next 2-3 years in bottle. 95+ points
