Score 94/100 · Drink 2019-2029, Jeb Dunnuck, Jun 2019

The 2016 Pinot Noir Fog Dance Vineyard also has a marine influence in its mulled cherry, spice box, earth, and shrimp broth-like aromas and flavors. Showing a good mix of sweet fruit and savory notes, it’s medium to full-bodied, beautifully textured, and has a complex, singular style. Aged 17 months in 39% new French oak, it can be drunk today with incredible pleasure or cellared for 7-8 years.

The 2016 Pinot Noir Fog Dance Vineyard is plump, racy and super-inviting. Plush fruit and silky, polished tannins give the Fog Dance a feeling of sensuality that is impossible to miss. Bright red cherry, pomegranate, blood orange, hard candy and rose petal build into the succulent finish.

The medium to deep ruby-purple colored 2016 Hartford Court Pinot Noir Fog Dance Vineyard simply sings of black cherry pie, freshly crushed blackberries and pomegranate with hints of spice cake, dark chocolate and sassafras. Medium to full-bodied, rich and spicy in the mouth, it fills the palate with decadent black berries and a velvety texture, finishing on a lingering peppery note. 348 cases produced.
