Angela Estate Abbott Claim Pinot Noir 2015 Review

Hosting a fancy dinner party and looking for a bottle to impress your friends? This is the one. You could get all geeky and mention that it's a blend of three different Pinot Noir clones (Pommard, Dijon 777, Dijon 115), or perhaps talk about its "Burgundian" character; but really, you should just let the wine do the talking. Complex and nuanced, it has a really inviting nose that includes aromas of tart red berries, dried leaves, and freshly turned earth. The red berries continue onto the palate, which is textured and mineral-rich. Serve with Beef Bourguignon for a match made in Pinot heaven.
