Blended from several blocks, the 2020 Pinot Noir Fiddlestix Vineyard is mostly Dijon clones, with a dash of Pommard. It's gently smoky and herbal on the nose, with floral nuances and notes of ripe cherries and strawberries. Aged a year in 25% new French oak, it's medium to full-bodied, with a silky feel and a long, mouthwatering finish.

The 2020 Pinot Noir Fiddlestix Vineyard is laced with crushed red/purplish berry fruit, wild herbs, lavender, sage and rose petal. Aromatic and fleshy, the Fiddlestix is super-expressive today, and pretty classy, too. Hints of kirsch, blood orange and cinnamon linger.
