Adelsheim – Boulder Bluff Vineyard Pinot Noir 2022 (750ml)

Winemaker Notes

This wine is so wonderfully aromatic on the nosedrifting scents of sandalwood, rose petal, and tayberry underpinned with a bass note of crackly forest floor. On the palate it is finely detailed and intent upon being exactly what it is: a distillation of shapely assurance. This is a well-turned vintage for Boulder Bluff.

Blend: 100% Pinot Noir

Professional Ratings

Adelsheims single vineyards were planted in the early 2000s on very steep slopes at 485 to 625 feet elevation. The bright red 2022 Pinot Noir Boulder Bluff Vineyard has a fruity and floral profile with notes of candied raspberries, pressed flowers, sweet herbs, and fresh soil. It takes on more tension on the palate, with finely coiled tannins, juicy, ripe fruit, mouthwatering, fresh acidity, and a long feel throughout the finish. Its focused and has a good, compact, yet elegant feel. Drink 2025-2037.
93 Robert Parker\’s Wine Advocate
The 2022 Pinot Noir Boulder Bluff is supple and inviting. Matured for 10 months in 33% new French oak, it opens with wafts of iodine and woodsmoke that give way to wild berry fruit and accents of rose petal and tangerine. Medium-bodied, it offers layer after layer of red fruit, citrus and spice. Its structured by finely chalky tannins and mouthwatering acidity and has a long, layered finish.
