2017 Tardy Pinot Noir
2017 Tardy Pinot Noir

Description

For the 2017 vintage, we hit record temperature highs in late May that initiated flowering, followed by a cool down in early and mid June, and higher temperatures at the end of the month. As a result, flowering was complete and produced an excellent fruit set. The 2017 vintage ended up with near average to slightly higher than average sugar and acid levels with many touting beautiful flavors and well-balanced fruit. 

Tasting Notes

Textured and layered, partnership with nature. Earthiness and minerality showcase the aromatics of the nose, a contrasting palate of ripe dark cherry and raspberry flows from front to back and side to side on the palate. Drink now through 2026. 

Recommended Pairing

  • Grilled Ahi Tuna with teriyaki
  • Herb roasted chicken 
  • Prime rib
  • Sausage peppers and onions
  • Root vegetables braised in red wine
