Tasting notes
The 2015 Pinot Noir la Encantada Vineyard offers up appealing aromas of candied peel, spice, red berry fruit and sweet soil. On the palate, it's supple, juicy, open-knit, framed by light structuring tannins and nicely balanced in profile. With some more depth and complexity, it would score higher.

Foxen's 2015 Pinot Noir La Encantada offers only modest depth, structure and complexity. There just isn't much else to say.
Christmas spice, peppery mint, candied cherries and hints of strawberries all emerge from the 2015 Pinot Noir La Encantada Vineyard, and it's another beautiful, elegant, seamless Pinot Noir from this terrific estate. However, like too many 2015s, it drops off on the finish, yet the tannin is beautifully managed and I suspect it will evolve gracefully.
