The 2012 Pinot Noir Southeast Block comes from a six-acre parcel of Pommard clone vines, the "sister" of the Flat Block planted in the same year of 1979. It was picked October 10 at 22.5 Brix and aged for 17 months in French oak, half of them new. It has an understated bouquet at first, with slightly more savory red berry fruit, tertiary/damp undergrowth notes emerging with time. The palate is medium-bodied with darker fruit than the Flat Block: harmonious in the mouth with good backbone, but personality wise, broodier and more saturnine. Allow this a couple of years to come out of its shell.
