Notes on the Wine
The Pinot Noir Estate is always the best place to start when evaluating our success or shortcoming in any given vintage. It incorporates nearly all of our estate vineyard in various amounts, and as such provides an honest evaluation of the year. The 2018 Estate is dense and powerful, reflecting the warm growing season we experienced, the naturally small crop, and small berry size throughout almost the entire vineyard. This wine is enjoyable upon release, but as is the case with all of our wines, will benefit from 5-8 years of aging.
