TN: 2009 Thomas Pinot Noir Dundee Hills

Light red in color. Almost translucent. 13.9% ABV. Breathtaking nose of red fruits, baking spices, earth and flowers. Medium body with exquisite acidity. Concentration and structure that belies the color of the wine and eleven years of bottle age. Cherries, strawberries, black tea and earth on the palate. Tremendous length on the finish. A great bottle of Thomas that is aging brilliantly. I only wish I had more. Best over the next 2-4 years.

My rating: 96 points.

Thanks for posting Tom. My first vintage is 2016. Notes look very promosing but I won’t pull for several years.

Had the 2010 Belle Pente Reserve this evening and similiar experience to yours. A beautiful wine.
