***SOLID6 SELECTION***
NOTES: Inspired by the three movements of Beethoven’s ground-breaking “Appassionata” Piano Sonata, there are three Appassionata Pinot Noirs, released at different tempos. The opening tier of Appassionata Pinot Noir bears the name of the Piano Sonata’s first movement, Allegro, which is the musical pace of a brisk walk.
This cuvée is a selection of barrels that show a precocious liveliness and expressivity that will drink well as a youthful wine but is built to age. Bottled after 18 to 20 months in barrel, and released three years after the vintage, the Allegro beautifully displays the beginnings of bottle maturation that is only revealed with time and cannot be rushed. The wine is delicately textured, but dark in tone and richly flavored with an insistent edge of black cherry fruit, and a juicy, lifted finish.
