Antica Terra Antikythera Pinot Noir 2014 (RP96)

Wine Advocate - Robert Parker

Grapes for the 2014 Pinot Noir Antikythera come from the Antica Terra vineyard, planted in 1989. It's incredibly elegant and ethereal, reminiscent of Rayas with its elegantly degraded, amaro-tinged profile: warm cranberries, ripe raspberries and blackberries are accented by bitter citrus peel, amaro, tree bark, laurel leaves, dried roses, tobacco, ash and scrub. The medium-bodied palate is elegantly styled but intense, layered and with minutely grained tannins, finishing incredibly long, nuanced and with lip-smacking freshness. Wow!
