More expressive on the second day, Mt. Beautiful’s 2015 10 Barrels Pinot Noir opens with a wreath of foresty undertones—dried herbs, decaying leaves, climbing rose, and, lilac bush encircles blackberry and black cherry. In the mouth, the tannins are fine and supple, with high toned-red berries and a wiry acid spine that gives way to a savory underpinning of dried herbs, oregano, hibiscus tea fleshing out the finish. 14.0% ABV | Sample
