The 2020 vintage is a vibrant and elegant single vineyard Pinot Noir that will make a believer of any Pinot Noir fan, not aware of the world-class potential for this varietal in the Finger Lakes.
The wine has a glowing, garnet and burgundy color, along with a dense, lifted nose of herbs, mint, cloves, orange zest and dried rhubarb. Taught acidity melds with juicy strawberry, white pepper and craisins, culminating in a long complex finish. This is already delicious but will continue to improve and gain complexity with age.
