Palate
This Pinot Noir exhibits dark flavors of plum and Bing cherries. Balanced acidity leads to a long black cherry cola finish with a hint of cloves and allspice.
Growing Conditions
This Pinot Noir is bold in character exhibiting mineral and earthy complexity typical of wines derived from the thin clay soils.
Winemaking
Qualities are obtained from extended skin contact during a cold soak prior to fermentation.
Appearance
Royal purple color
Food Pairing
Roasted quail or lamb with rosemary will accentuate the fruit in this wine. A ragout sauce of shiitake and morel mushrooms or a side of risotto with pancetta will pair well with its warm and inviting earthiness. Decidedly, this is a comfort food wine.
