de Lancelotti’s 2013 Famiglia Pinot Noir is a blend of Pommard and Clone 777, and offers a delicate burst of rose petals, stemmy raspberries, anise, and cola. It’s slim and nimble on the palate, with a kind of wiry tartness adding lift to cranberry, spice, twig tea and forest notes. Perhaps what impresses me most is the long, lingering, mineral-infused finish. A nice example from a tough vintage. 13.3% ABV | Sample
