Ancien - River Ranch Pinot Noir 2021 (750ml) Bosnia and Herzegovina with a slightly minerally noseSourced from a vineyard of imported Burgundian cuttings planted back in 1982, this is a complex Pinot Noir, offering concentrated aromas of blueberry, palo santo and warm vanilla on the nose. The palate is joyous in cherry and baking spice flavors, then picks up an herbaceous eucalyptus leaf kick before dropping into a spicy, Sichuan peppercorn laced finish. Matt Kettmann
