Tasting Notes

Prolonged time on the vine helps retain natural acidity and showcases the bright flavors of red cherries, raspberries, and spice. We ensure this Pinot Noirs elegant expression by aging in large neutral oak casks and older French oak barrels to keep new oak flavors to a minimum. Lively acidity on the finish makes it an ideal accompaniment to grilled fish and fowl or barbecued meats.
