2021 Pinot Noir
Bien Nacido Vineyard
Warm days and cool nights create intense fruit flavors and vibrant acidity in the Pinot Noir grapes of Bien Nacido Vineyard, the source of this exceptional wine. Opening with aromas of rich red and black plums, fig jam, brandied cherries and speculoos cookies, this Pinot Noir soon reveals hints of Chinese five-spice and sweet hickory. The palate bursts with flavors of ripe raspberry, strawberry jam, molasses and Port wine reduction. Hints of earthy tones and eucalyptus then lead to a long, smokey finish. Enjoy a bottle over Happy Hour, paired with your favorite meal, or fill your cellar to save for a special occasion.
Tasting Notes & Specs
Earthy tones of moist soil and eucalyptus lead to a long, smokey finish. Flavors of ripe raspberry, strawberry jam, and black strap molasses.
