2016 'Monogram' Pinot Noir

Pinot Noir

Overview

Our vision of the “perfect” Pinot Noir, this powerful yet elegant wine delivers a distinctly layered aroma profile with intriguing nuances of dark fruit, licorice, anise, mocha and cedar. The robust and complex palate is framed by firm, elegant tannins, rich and mouth-filling flavors and an extraordinarily persistent finish. A truly age-worthy wine, Monogram is an extremely limited production, featuring three or four of the finest hand-selected barrels from the vintage.

This sophisticated release is the quintessence of harnessed energy. Intensity and power are present in equal measure with nuance and elegance. Mouthwatering fruit reminiscent of ripe black Morello cherries is supported by firm tannins and a touch of barrel spice.
