One of the standouts in the lineup is the 2017 Pinot Noir Van der Kamp Vineyard, which comes from a site in the Sonoma Mountain AVA and was completely destemmed and brought up in 45% new French oak. Candied violets, cherries, mulberries, leather, and flowery incense notes all emerge from this medium to full-bodied, textured, sexy Pinot Noir that’s already hard to resist. It should evolve nicely for 7-8 years.
About This Wine
As always, the 2017 Siduri Van der Kamp isn’t our most weighty Pinot Noir, but it is amongst the most distinctive, with a forest floor and smoked meat character, along with red fruits and a slight hint of underbrush. This wine cries out for food and is truly one of the best wines of the vintage.
