It is sexy and unabashed and gives clear chocolate and damson puree
aromatic Barolo made from parcels in Cannubi
airy and restrained aromas of plum liqueur
Good stuff and because of the velvety palate feel

Occidental (Kistler), Freestone-Occidental Vintage:2022 It is sexy and unabashedMedium ruby purple colored, the 2015 Pinot Noir Freestone Occidental has super intense notes of redcurrants, black raspberries, black cherries and violets with hints of dark chocolate, cinnamon stick and smoked meats plus a waft of underbrush. Wonderfully elegant in the mouth with vibrant black and red fruits, earth and savory layers, it has a firm frame of finely grained tannins and wonderful freshness, finishing long with an exciting herbal lift.
