2022 Lingua Franca Pinot Noir Mimi's Mind Eola Amity Hills 750ml 12 Bottle Case - Free Shipping

A cold and rainy spring led to a late frost that devastated the Chardonnay crop. However, the end of June brought a weeklong heat wave of 95-104 degrees that helped kickstart the period of bloom.  July was calm and moderate with little rain. Thankfully, the frost had little effect on Pinot Noir, which has a later start, and less exposure. Bloom came 
the first week of July, and veraison began on Labor Day weekend, finishing a week later.  
Picking was expedited due to rain pressure, with Pinot harvest starting at the end of the 
first week of October and ending on October 20th. 

Mimi’s Mind 2022 is a luscious, round yet structured wine with aromas of wet stone, 
anise, tar, blackberry and it opens up to reveal fresh savory herbs and rose. These 
give way to deeper fruit flavors on the palate with red and black cherry, blackberry,  black 
tea, graphite nuances and a spine of salinity. The flavors and aromas continue through the 
finish which ends with fine tannins. Vineyard Sources Mimi Casteel’s vineyard has been a role
