Last week I had a dinner with colleagues and we ordered a couple bottles of the 2012 Anthill Farms Pinot Noir. My colleague who selected the wine indicated that Anthill Farms is one of her favorite wineries.
The color of the wine was hard to discern in the restaurant’s subdued lighting but its cherry-like aromas were easy to pick up and accompanied my dinner so nicely from start to finish this wine could be summed up in one word: versatile. The flavors never overpower you but they linger with a soft finish. I will remember the 2012 Anthill Farms Pinot Noir as my favorite in recent memory.
If you are looking for a nice host gift or present for a friend during the holidays this would be appreciated. The appeal of this wine was universal at our dinner table, and I know I’ll keep my eye out for it in the future. The 2012 Anthill Farms Pinot Noir from their Comptche Ridge Vineyard in Mendocino County retails for $50-$60 and is widely available in the US.
