Antica Terra 'Botanica' Pinot Noir Willamette Valley, USA 2023 Muscadet Sevre-et-Maine Monduese adds high toned blackThis wine is so pretty and perfumed, with floral and botanical aromas. The palate is generous yet very pure and focused, with saturated red fruit flavors and velvety tannins. The long finish carries notes of bitter rose petals and wild mountain herbs. Medium to full bodied. Drink or hold. James Suckling
