The 2020 Pinot Noir En Famille comes from a southeastern-facing parcel and was fermented entirely in puncheons. There's a slight beetroot character on the nose and root beer notes that extend to earthy spice and minty hints of wintergreen. It's medium to full-bodied, plump and supple, even a bit soft, finishing with velvety tannins.

The 2020 Pinot Noir En Famille opens with loads of crushed red berry fruit, spice, blood orange and cedar. Bright acids and expressive floral notes add gorgeous lift to this racy, sumptuous Pinot. The 2020 could use a few years in bottle to shed some of its incisive tannin.
