Pomarium Estate West Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir 2021 Peay Vineyards

Professionele reviews

Robert Parker (97)

The 2021 Estate Pinot Noir Pomarium is notable this vintage for its balance of concentrated fruit and vibrant freshness. Its broody scents of cranberry sauce, mushroom and conifer give way to licorice and Angostura bitters as it spends time in the glass. Its concentrated flavors defy its youthfully reluctant aromas, offering wave after wave of perfumed fruit. It has a fine, chalky frame and focused acidity that drives its long, layered finish. It drinks beautifully straight from the bottle, but it may have more to offer in another 3-5 years.

The 2021 Pinot Noir Estate Pomarium is the most virile and earthy of the Peay Pinots. It offers up wild cherry, crushed autumn leaves, spice, tobacco and incense. Potent tannins add to an impression of somber gravitas. I find the 2021 a bit burly, but that is a pretty small critique at this level.

The 2021 Pinot Noir Pomarium is packed with notes of black cherry liqueur and kirsch, pure ripe fruit, a touch of sage, and sweet earth. It’s more grounded and muscular, with ripe, broad tannins, and has great depth as well as a grounded nature, with good fruit throughout.
