What a wonderful delight! This 2017 LOBO Wines Pinot Noir was our very first introduction to Krys and Randy's label and we were really taken back! When you typically think of Pinot Noir, the words powerful, bold and mesmerizing aren't necessarily the first adjectives that come to mind. We think that winemaker Victoria Coleman has create something very unique and special here. Dark mauve to medium purple in the glass, this wine shows off dominant aromas of black cherry, cranberry jelly and roasting spices. This wine spent some time in the aerator and opened up to amazing flavors of strawberry rhubarb, cherry cordial, nutmeg and pepper in the glass. This wine really grabs you and we caught ourselves checking the label more than once to make sure it was a Pinot. This wine is made from single vineyard 100% estate grown fruit (our favorite) and we can't recall a more delicious Pinot Noir in recent memory. It really is outstanding and has plenty of years of drinking left. This wine will tend to develop and likely peak in 2024.
