2016 Ponzi Pinot Noir Classico, Willamette Valley

Pop and pour. Noticeably darker than their Tavola bottling. Ripe cherry and pomegranate on the nose with a very faint hint of orange peel. Wet soil and cedar also. Lively but balanced acid. Flavors are a mix of ripe and tart cherry, baking spice and interestingly some ripe watermelon. Fine silky tannins. Excellent now and should cruise for a good five years or so. Really, really nice.

I’ve always like the Ponzi Pinots that I’ve had but last had the 2002 at 10 years old. It was still drinking well.
