2019 Reserve Pinot Noir
Jespersen Ranch
In Stock
In 2019 we found that two blocks of Pinot Noir at Jespersen Ranch were exceptional, and we hand-harvested them in late September for our Reserve program. We destemmed the grapes into four fermentation tanks, with one including a portion of dried stems. After fermentation, we use a basket press to gently press the grapes and transfer the wine to barrels to age for 10 months. We tasted through each barrel, and only the most expressive were selected for the final blend. The 2019 vintage is rich and layered, with stunning aromatics. The palate is redolent with dark fruit flavors, spice and structure.
