Bob Cabral - Troubadour Pinot Noir 2020

This deep, vibrant and wonderfully well-balanced wine feels alive with tangy cherry and berry flavors, as driving acidity and moderate tannins shape it into an appetizing expression that demands more sipping. While tempting and enjoyable now, the wine will have more to show from 2026–2032.

The 2018 Pinot Noir Cuvee Troubadour pours a medium salmon hue, with attractive aromas of golden orchard fruit, apricot, raspberry, fresh herbs, and roses. Medium-bodied, with a soft, rounded texture, notes of ripe peach and honeydew melon, and delicate salinity on the palate, it’s a more versatile style that can pair well across a broader range of foods. Drink over the next few years.

The 2019 Pinot Noir Troubadour is exceptionally expressive. Medium ruby-purple, it slowly blossoms to wild berry fruit, black tea and forest floor aromas. The palate takes center stage, flaunting intense, spicy fruits. There is a singular fruit concentration for its slender frame, finishing long and fragrant. It deserves another 3-5 years in bottle.
