This wine is light and bright with so much life and elegant cherry fruit woven through the plate. Wonderfully balanced savory notes on the finish.
Grape clusters are destemmed by hand at the pedicel, leaving the berry intact whole berries are placed in 500L terra cotta amphorae imported from Tuscany, where they spontaneously ferment from the inside out with indigenous yeast. After primary fermentation, the juice is pressed off into French oak barrels and stays there for 8 months. Only 10% new French oak.

Wine Advocate Review:
The 2022 Pinot Noir VGR is youthfully flinty to begin, requiring plenty of air to reveal blackberry, rhubarb, cinnamon stick and woodsy undertones. The medium-bodied palate offers expansive, layered flavors. It’s balanced by juicy acidity and has a long, nuanced finish. It will benefit from 2-3 years in the cellar or some time in a decanter. Anticipated Maturity: 2025-2035
