2024 Pinot Noir
Red Licorice • Black Tea • Vibrant
Best enjoyed at 53° - 60°F
Suggested drink window: now - 2029 - 2036
From 57% Estate fruit and 43% grower fruit, the 2024 Pinot Noir spans both the east and west sides of Seneca Lake, as well as the west side of Cayuga Lake, with myriad different soils, aspects, ripeness levels, whole cluster components, fermentation lengths, and types of oak barrel. The final blend covers the length of the Pinot Noir harvest but in 2024, the harvest period only lasted a few days due to inclement weather on the horizon. With its variety of styles and techniques, the final blend represents the Pinot Noir harvest and our various vineyard sources, allowing each site to contribute its essence to the final blend.

2024 Vintage Notes
The 2024 season was a strong year for us at Damiani and in the Finger Lakes, and with thoughtful viticulture and a gentle hand in the cellar, the wines produced were intentional, energetic, and concentrated.
