The 2016 Pinot Noir Precious Mountain Vineyard comes from dry-farmed, organic vines, some planted as early as 1971. Pale to medium ruby-purple colored, it opens with blackcurrant and spiced black cherries, dried savory herbs, notes of nutmeg and warm cinnamon stick, perfumed earth and peppery/meaty touches with red berry sparks. The palate is light to medium-bodied and slowly fleshes out in the mouth—this is a more elegant, understated style—with grainy tannins and juicy freshness to lift the long, spicy finish. 318 cases produced.
