Adrian Fog, Numbers Pinot NoirNA

Worth considering

there is a perceptible touch of volatile acidity to the moderately high- toned red berry fruit aromas that are trimmed in hints of spice

Humbrecht says that the proportion of malic acidity – which thereafter diminished – was never higher than one-third

with restrained tannins and no rough edges

Firm reduction renders the nose impossible to assess at present

By far the most voluminous of an admittedly modest range

(from purchased grapes)

the texture gives comfort that there is enough structure to age

I'd drink it young to capture that spirit

A deeply pitched nose displays attractive

highly complex and perfectly well-balanced finale

The soils in Albesani are fundamentally calcareous
