2020 Pinot Noir Estate
Seasonal Special
50% off 12+ bottles
The Estate Pinot Noir is a blend of wines from each of our soil types and spans the full elevational range of our estate vineyard, it includes every clone and every block of Pinot Noir we have. Our site has a bold, expressive, and unique flavor profile. Is it the volcanic soils, the strong winds, or the farming itself that builds the strong character? We think it is all of those things and more. Each vintage is a unique snapshot of our vineyard’s development. In a sense it is a geographical time capsule, and lucky for us it can be conveyed by way of liquid libation.

Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
Medium/deep garnet in color. The nose is spicy and floral and is reminiscent of crushed pine needles, cigar box spice, and sweet orange oil. The palate is substantial and mouth filling, and gives way to a vibrant finish.
Vintage Notes
The 2020 wine harvest was full of challenges; it was much like the rest of the year we collectively experienced. Although we had to contend with a pandemic, forest fires, and excruciatingly low yields, we were graced with what was truly the vintage of the decade in terms of fruit quality. The 2020 vintage is showing to be a powerhouse, with ethereal texture, density, and fruit concentration. Our red wine offerings will be of high quality and limited.
