2020 PINOT NOIR

DRY RED

Notes from the Winemaker

Rich and complex, with flavors of red berries and dried fruit, this Pinot Noir is well-rounded and has ample tannins. Notes of integrated French Oak entice the palate. This wine will be in its prime after 2-3 years of bottle aging.

Production Notes

Harvested in late October, the fruit fermented on the skinsin an open-top vessel with manual daily punch downs, 15 days spent macerating, and barrel aged for 20 months in French oak.
