TASTING NOTES:
Bright ripe red cherry, cranberry, and warm silky berry aromas with hints of allspice. The bouquet is rounded out with sweet vanilla and berry flavors, with a balanced and elegant finish. This very approachable wine offers mouth-filling, yet soft and silky, tannins. Ripe fruit flavors are complemented by bright acidity and a gentle oak mid-palate. This complex and fruit-driven Pinot Noir pairs beautifully with sauteéd mushrooms or shaved truffles with pasta.
PAIRING NOTES:
This complex and fruit-driven Pinot Noir pairs beautifully with fig and goat cheese crostinis, roasted duck, and rotisserie chicken.
Wine Notes:
Our 2019 Pinot Noir was hand-picked, sorted, destemmed and put into
open top fermenters, and was cold-soaked for 5-days. It was then
fermented, pressed, and stored in French Oak barrels. In addition to
growing these grapes on our Estate, we acquired fruit from a few local,
family vineyards.
Vintage Notes:
It was another remarkable vintage for Russian River Valley Pinot Noir. A
fairly dry winter gave way to a wet early spring, delaying budbreak in the
vineyards but providing ample moisture for our 2019 crop. Consistent
and mild conditions during bloom and throughout the early growing
season, along with a cooler than normal August, led to slow ripening and
a later harvest. This long hang-time allowed for full flavor development.
