About This Wine
The grapes for this "Estate" Pinot Noir are hand-harvested from the estate’s meticulously managed vineyards in McMinnville. The wine undergoes traditional fermentation with native yeasts and is aged in a combination of French oak barrels and stainless steel to preserve its vibrant fruit character and add depth. Bottled in early March 2024, this Pinot Noir is approachable now and will also benefit from a few years of cellaring to further develop its complexity.
