One of the bigger, richer wines in the lineup, the 2018 Pinot Noir Manchester Ridge Vineyard boasts a fruit-loaded bouquet of black raspberries, candied orange, and violets (there’s an almost blue edge to the fruit) to go with a medium to full-bodied, rounded, sweetly fruited, beautifully textured style on the palate.

Medium ruby-purple in color, the 2018 Pinot Noir Manchester Ridge Vineyard has a beautifully perfumed nose of red roses, forest floor, lavender and Ceylon tea with a core of black raspberries, pomegranate, rhubarb and wild sage. The palate is medium-bodied and finely structured, featuring grainy tannins and bold freshness to support the intense red berry layers, finishing long and earthy. 150 cases were made.
