The 2007 Pinot Noir Estate Cuvee spent 10 months in 20% new French oak. It was sourced from numerous blocks of the estate’s younger vines. A bit darker in color than is typical for the vintage, the nose offers up both red and black fruit aromas as well as some earth notes. Soft and easy-going on the palate with no greenness, the wine is a bit light but very pleasant with plenty of varietal character. Drink it over the next 4 years. Tel.
