Nicolas Jay 2017 Pinot Noir Bishop Creek   

2017 Nicolas Jay Pinot Noir Bishops Creek, Yamhill Carleton

Vinous - 95 Points

Shimmering ruby-red. Heady, spice- and mineral-accented cherry and blue fruit liqueur aromas take on incense and floral accents with air. Juicy, seamless and concentrated, offering densely packed black raspberry, boysenberry and cherry liqueur flavors that show sharp delineation and smoky back-end thrust. Finishes extremely long and lively, with resonating blue fruit, mineral and floral notes and polished tannins that make a late appearance. 50% new oak. Drink 2023 - 2032. Josh Raynolds Aug 2020
