Pinot Noir, Estate Bottled

Pinot Noir, Estate Bottled Wine Details
Price: $29.99 per bottle

Description: We have occasionally used some of our pinot noir grapes to make a still red wine. Early experiments (in '91, '93, and '95) had mixed reviews, though generally quite good. We weren't satisfied though and came back again to try in 1997 and 1998. These two vintages are clearly the best yet — and we made a reasonable quantity too, not just a 60-70 case test. The 1997 had clear pinot noir character, with rich red cherry aromas and flavors. And the just-released 1998 is similar, only a little richer.
