2016 Westwood Pinot Noir, Annadel Gap, Sonoma Valley, Clone 37
The 2016 Estate Pinot Noir Clone 37 (also known as the Mt. Eden clone) has a much deeper ruby color than the other Pinot Noirs, sweet black cherry and berry fruit, good texture, medium body, and a long finish. Some forest floor also seems to make an appearance in this very Côtes de Nuits style of Pinot Noir, with aromas of earth, raspberry, baking spice, vanilla, and red cherry
90+ Points - The Wine Advocate
Pale to medium ruby-purple colored, the 2016 Pinot Noir Estate Clone 37 Annadel Gap Vineyard is scented of pomegranate, wild thyme, earth and redcurrants with touches of rose hip tea and garrigue. Medium to full-bodied, the palate bursts with juicy red fruit flavors, supported by a racy line of freshness and gentle grip of fine-grained tannins, finishing on an herbal note. 104 cases were made.
