Lots of mulled cherries, dried raspberries, savory herbs, and baking spice notes emerge from the 2019 Pinot Noir Quarter Moon Vineyard, a medium-bodied, savory, complex, nuanced Pinot Noir that will evolve for 7-8 years. It has a certainly Old-World charm (as well as tannic grip) that emerges with time in the glass.

The 2019 Pinot Noir Quarter Moon Vineyard, medium ruby in color, has a deep well of aromas: spiced cranberry sauce, dried tangerine peel, woodsmoke, aniseed and iron, gaining more nuance with air. The medium-bodied palate is grainy and fresh with intense, perfectly ripe fruits and a flourish of spices on the long finish. It's young and will benefit from another 2-3 years in bottle.
