Homestead Vineyard Pinot Noir

Homestead Vineyard Pinot Noir Wine Details
Price: $45.00 per bottle

Description: For several years, we’ve been beguiled by the powerful fruit coming off this small vineyard which, as its name suggests, was the site of the homestead on the property. The plot was planted in 1982 to vines of the Burgundian Pommard clone which have responded to conditions on the south-facing elevated benchland site with remarkably concentrated flavors of dark cherry. First bottled under its own name in 2000, Homestead Block is distinguished for its depth and purity of fruit character. Concentrated dark cherry and raspberry flavors make a strong impression followed by layers of chocolate and vanilla. On the palate, the wine is concentrated without being weighty.
