Relic 2016 Pinot Noir Kayasha   

2016 Relic Pinot Noir “Kayasha” Fort Ross-Seaview
San Francisco Wine Panel Score 94+ Points
Gently creamy and seductively fruity, the nose of this Pinot Noir is a focused perfume of wild strawberry, strawberry preserve, bottled red cherry, pink rose, pink peppercorn, mace, star anise, five-spice and tobacco leaf scents. This same elegant package fans-out gracefully and in pristine focus on the palate, where the fruit is gently piquant and the texture creamy-racy. A classy, lingering finish delivers all the promised elements with a ideally food-worthy balance. A picture of loveliness already, it should grow even finer over the next eighteen months. 318 cases produced.
