2022 Pinot Noir, Fiddlestix Vineyard

Winemaker's Notes

This Pinot Noir was sourced from the esteemed Fiddlestix Vineyard in the Santa Rita Hills. This vineyard's prime position neighboring the Pacific Ocean invites cool, marine breezes, ideal for nurturing delicate Pinot Noir grapes. The 2022 vintage exudes aromas of rose petals and blackberries, presenting a velvety texture with nuances of quince and bergamot. On the palate, juicy raspberry flavors are complemented by a touch of cinnamon that adds complexity to the persistent, silky smooth tannins and vivacious finish.
