Tasting Notes:
The labels of Matt Taylor Wines reflect what you’ll find in the bottle and are hand painted by Taylor and his family: “I felt orange was more representative of the way I make Pinot Noir in that I am happy to sacrifice red aromatics both in how I farm and how I make the wine. So, in fact you see more of a spice spectrum that never really rests on the primary red fruits so many California Pinot Noirs hang their hat on. Not for us! The secondary brush stroke is more of a blue stroke. Again, the feeling is that how we farm and the length of the season at Komorebi lends itself to more blue fruits than red fruits. And lastly is the green dot which pays homage to the green vein in this wine; not green in a negative way, but green from whole cluster and spice and all the amazing notes that I want from Pinot Noir that make it interesting and complex to me.”
