Description:
Andover Estate Pinot Noir 2016 is high toned, open and perfumed with intense aromatics and layers of ripe red fruit. Flavors of strawberries, raspberries and cherries blend elegantly with an underlying stratum of vanilla from 12-months of aging in French oak. The tannins are soft and silky and the finish is elegant and graceful.

Tobin’s Review 3 out of 5
Andover Estate’s Pinot Noir 2016 has a deep purple plum hue. The aroma is really fruity, and I can pick out cherry on the nose. The wine is soft with cherry flavors and hints of plum. I do taste a little oak, but it’s very subtle. I really don’t taste any vanilla in this wine and the finish isn’t that smooth. Overall it’s a good wine.
