Timothy Olson Pinot Noir Monterey 2012
About the wine
.
- Real fruit and a lot of elegance at the same time in this very well-rounded Pinot from Monterey.
- Tim knocked it out of the park on short notice with the last vintage. This year he had more time to prepare, so he worked with the same vineyard and winery but got the pick of the lot. This is even better than last year and with more aging potential.
- The last vintage sold out so fast Tim's friends and family didn't even get a chance to order it (45 days) -- Teach them a lesson about procrastinating and beat them to it again.
