Tasting Notes

The 2020 vintage blessed us with a jewel of a Pinot Noir that we are very excited to share with you.  Stunning and seductive, this medium bodied Pinot features a mouthwatering nose of tart cherry, fresh strawberry, cedar, and rich, heavy cream.  The palate follows, suit; black and red cherry mingles with savory buttercream.  Raspberry leaf, and strawberry rub elbows with the most delicate hint of beef broth and shitake mushroom.  Texturally you are greeted by silky and supple tannins and a mouthfeel that is full and round yet refined.

Vintage Notes

2020 was a winemaker's dream, a vintage of idyllic growing conditions in the Finger Lakes. Expect to see extremely high-quality wines that show concentration, complexity, silky tannins, and the varietal specificity for which we are known.

During the growing season we experienced gorgeous warm days and heat in timely doses. The heat produced the right amount of moisture stress (read lack of rain) to keep the fruit slightly dehydrated and the consequent flavor development of the skins and pulp lent a complexity to the juices that are playing out in the wines.

Winemakers Phil and Lauren crafted truly remarkable wines that will show well early, but will have the depth of character to age gracefully.
