Lemelson Thea's Selection 2000

Thea Lemelson likes her Pinots on the racy side - deeply fruity, rich and satisfying, with softer tannins while still having the firm acidic backbone needed to pair easily with fine cuisine. Thea wants the complexity that comes from low yields and minimal intervention in the winery without having to wait a decade. Thea's Pinot Noir is indeed a "selection," a Reserve-level blend that brings together elements selected from individual barrels showing the most juicy, forward, perfumed, racy fruit, while still having the requisite tannins needed to age and gain in complexity. In our blending tasting selections, we have kept Thea's wishes in mind and have tried to please her... we hope you are also tickled!
