Pico & Vine Russian River Valley Pinot Noir (75cl)

A 100% Pinot Noir from the Russian River Valley, produced by Purple Wines + Spirits. The grapes are harvested during late evening and early morning hours, then cold-macerated before fermentation with five to seven days of skin contact. The wine ages for 11 months in French oak barrels, 30% of which are new. The nose leads with ripe dark cherry and plum, followed by roasted mushroom, damp forest floor, baking spice and vanilla. The palate is medium-weight, with cherry and plum, warm spice, subtle vanilla and lively acidity. The finish is silky, with restrained tannins and echoes of dark cherry and light oak spice.
