Mendocino County Pinot Noir 2021
Sensuous
As SENSUOUS as Eartha Kitt, these mid-weight reds are ripe enough to offer plump fruit flavor but not heavy or tannic. The category includes most Merlots and our softer red blends, but also the ripest Pinot Noirs and the lightest Cabernets. These crowd-pleasing reds are thoroughly modern.
Pinot Noir
SKU: DLPNMD2172H
To best preserve the quality of the grapes and fully express their unique terroir, the wine is vinified in open-top fermenters using native yeasts. The grapes undergo hand punch downs and after the maceration is complete, the juice is extracted using a gentle basket press.
The nose of this wine opens with aromas of English tea and chocolate blended with fresh berry and flavors of cola and strawberry jam are layered with the richness of earth and forest floor. The wine is medium bodied with a lengthy and intoxicating finish.
