"The 2013 Pinot Noir Elizabeth's Reserve underwent a four to six day skin maceration and was matured for ten months in 31% new French oak. It offers raspberry and pomegranate scents on the nose, before changing tack towards hints of iodine and even boot polish. The palate is lithe and fresh in the mouth - succulent tannin and bright red cherry and strawberry fruit to the fore. Harmonious with good length, this is one of the best releases from Adelsheim this year." 91rp
