Forefront Pinot Noir 2017

A warmer-than-average growing season with consistently dry weather led to an early harvest at optimal ripeness, yielding bright and balanced fruit. The persistent morning fog and long, mild growing season allowed the fruit longer hang time, resulting in excellent color extraction and bright acidity.

A dazzling bouquet of juicy red cherry and ripe strawberry fruit woven amongst touches of dried rose petal and ground nutmeg rise from the glass. Brilliant acidity and impeccable balance characterize the full, ripe palate, filled with flavors of supple red raspberry and cherry pie filling, lingering through the velvety finish and accented by hints of briar, cinnamon stick and brown sugar.
