From the fog-kissed vineyards of Russian River Valley, this 2021 Pinot Noir is a beautiful expression of its cool-climate origins. It unfolds with a captivating aromatic bouquet of ripe blackberry, cranberry, and floral rose, elegantly layered with warm baking spices, cardamom, anise, and subtle earth. On the palate, vibrant cherry juice and pomegranate lead a lush profile accented by notes of cola, black tea, and bright lemon zest. Silky and velvet-textured with bright acidity, the wine offers a perfect balance of ripe fruit intensity and refreshing finesse.
