Pinot Noir

Perfect for hot days and a little chill, this Pinot Noir is filled with crunchy red fruits, red flowers, and a delicate color. A light bodied wine with bright freshness and a touch of cedar in the finish.

Points of Interest

For fans of the “vin de soif” style (The fancy French expression used about wines that are easy-drinking, Thirst quenching is also accurate description). Aged 6 months in oak with native yeast fermentation, this wine fits in perfectly with the light-bodied reds with high acid that are so fun to drink.
