Wine Profile

Production Notes
Varietal Content: 100% Pinot Noir; Cooperage: 100% French Oak, 30% New, 60% Neutral
Winemaker Notes
This alluring wine displays classic Pinot Noir aromas of ripe strawberry, cherry and plum, along with subtle hints of cola and clove. On the palate, the lush fruit is underscored by lovely cool-climate acidity and silky tannins that carry the flavors to a long, elegant finish.
Production
The 2016 growing season began with generous winter rains, followed by a spring and summer marked by moderate temperatures and abundant sunshine. Like several recent vintages, the 2016 harvest came early, delivering exquisite quality grapes. After the modest size crop of 2015, 2016 saw a welcome return to average yields. Overall, the 2016 whites show an ideal combination of lovely richness and excellent natural acidity, while the reds are lush and complex, with beautiful color and concentration.
