2014 Pinot Noir Reserve 5L (6.67 Standard Bottles) - Library Exclusive
Price: $325
Purchase this enormous bottle and lay it down for a birthday or special anniversary. The lower oxygen to wine ratio in large format bottles makes them perfect for aging and commemorating events. The gift for that person that has everything.
This hunk of a wine expresses notes of cigar box, anise, vanilla, clove and underlying fruit that shows after being swirled and quaffed for a sitting, sure to shine for many moons, decant before enjoying. We recommend serving along side a juicy, peppered steak.
