Description

The Pinot Noir grapes were harvested from Monterey and California’s Central Coast, making this the only wine in the series not from Lodi. The grapes underwent a 12-day fermentation in stainless steel tanks, followed by 8 months of aging in oak barrels, 5% of which were new. The wine embodies a fruit-forward, easy-drinking style at its best—yet remains structured and nuanced.
