Ponzi Vineyards Aurora Pinot Noir 2017 (92 JS)

“Attractive aromas of ripe red cherries and berries with violets and a subtly earthy edge, as well as forest-floor and leafy, undergrowth notes. The palate has a very seamless build of silky, lacy tannin and crafts a seamless, long, red-cherry impression that holds elegant, long and fine.”
