Pisoni Pinot Noir "Pisoni Estate"

The 2021 Pinot Noir is outrageously beautiful. A vivid, sweeping wine, the 2021 captures all the best qualities of this rugged site. Blue/black fruit, cloves, licorice, menthol, lavender and chocolate all build effortlessly, amplified by the wine's natural intensity and volume. The 2021 is a big, rich wine, but it is also not overdone in any way. Jeff and Mark Pisoni blend their estate Pinot using blocks from the five main soil types found across the property. This is quintessential Pisoni.

The 2021 Pinot Noir Pisoni was matured for 11 months in 68% new French oak. It unfurls from red and black cherry, forest floor and mushroom to fine streaks of conifer as it spends time in the glass. The full-bodied palate has a powerful core of concentrated, broody fruit. It has a silky texture, vibrant acidity and a long, flavorful finish. It will benefit from 2-3+ years in bottle. 680 cases were made.
