Domaine Thomson, Rows 1-37 Pinot Noir 2017

"Expressive floral and herbal notes—think violets, roses, thyme and tea leaves—mark the nose of Domaine Thomson's 2017 Rows 1 - 37 Pinot Noir. It's medium-bodied, with silky tannins, bright acids and a sense of gently coiled tension on the long, tannic but elegant finish. It comes across as distinctly different in style from the 2014, reviewed back in 2019." - Wine Advocate

Aromatic with wild raspberry and red plum, a touch of exotic star anise and dried herbs too. After the opulence of the nose the palate comes as a surprise; this is structured, dense pinot noir with finely grained tannin firmly in support. Lovely concentration of fruit and a long, sustained finish.
