A bouquet of classic black cherry, mint, iron and smoked earth combined with minerality. Beautiful palate with a medium to full body and perfectly integrated acidity. An elegant, lengthy finish.

The 2016 Pinot Noir Garys Vineyard offers more minerality and iron/meaty notes as well as classic black cherry fruits, mint, and smoked earth. It's beautiful on the palate as well and has medium to full body, perfectly integrated acidity, and an elegant, lengthy personality.

Aged 16 months in 47% new French oak, the medium ruby colored 2016 Pinot Noir Garys' Vineyard opens with a touch of balsamic, with a pretty perfume of dried rose petals, cranberries and tangerine peel underneath, plus a core of bright red cherries and berries. The palate is light to medium-bodied and silky. It's bright, spicy and energetic in the mouth with a soft frame and juicy freshness, finishing long and super perfumed. 550 cases produced. 91+?

Shows engaging granularity to the dark fruit and spice flavors, which turn savory on the structured finish. Graphite accents linger. 550 cases made.
