Le Nord is the north block of our estate vineyard. It is southwest facing at 600’ to 800’ elevation. Red raspberry and cherry at the entry and layers of spice, and tobacco fill the glass. This Pinot Noir is elegant with soft tannins and a silky finish. Shows beautifully in its youth, yet will age gracefully and develop great complexity for 8 to 10 years. Aged for 12 months in 35% new French Oak. The estate vineyard is 100% Jory soil planted with 42 year old Pommard clone.
