Couldn't load pickup availability
Spicy cologne lifts from the 2021 Pinot Noir Paul Gerrie Vineyard, with both high-toned and darker notes of sage, menthol, bergamot, and cranberry cocktail. Medium to full-bodied, it’s tightly coiled, with tremendous length, gripping ripe tannins, a bright spine of acidity, and mouthwatering salinity that lasts long on the finish. It offers up great mineral texture and will need 3-5 more years in bottle. Drink 2026-2040.

The 2021 Pinot Noir Paul Gerrie Vineyard was fermented with 40% whole clusters, and the wine was matured for 18 months in 45% new French oak. It's bursting with a kaleidoscopic perfume of strawberry, raspberry and pomegranate and nuances of lavender, licorice and bitters. The light-bodied palate is elegantly styled, with understated, spicy fruit, vibrant acidity, chalky tannins and a very long, layered finish. It opens dramatically as it airs in the glass and will benefit from time in a decanter. 491 cases were made.
