More ripe, voluptuous, rounded and seamlessly textured, the 2012 Pinot Noir Kessler Haak Vineyard gives up lots of spiced raspberries and black cherry fruits, underbrush and dusty soil notes on the nose. Surprisingly ripe and textured (this release is normally more delicate and ethereal), it has a core of sweet fruit, expands nicely on the palate and has terrific purity and fine tannin. Seeing 40% stems and 20 months in 30% new French oak, drink it through 2022.
