Donnachadh Pinot Noir Estate Sta. Rita Hills

$39.95

The 2021 Estate Pinot Noir comes all from organically farmed hillside blocks. This wine is a blend of Swan, Pommard, Calera, 115 and 667 clones. Delicate perfume and fruit aromas of pomegranate, blood orange and red cherries, wrapped in layers of savory herbs — sage and thyme —along with black tea on the nose. Concentrated, but precise and delicate in the mouth, with focused nuanced fruit and a savory finish.

More Information

Donnachadh Pinot Noir Estate Sta. Rita Hills is aged for 15 months in French oak barrels, about 20% new, and is made with about 15% whole cluster. This is a wine that’s built for the long haul. If you drink it young, be sure to give it a decant or at least try to open it a couple of hours ahead of serving. The wine is quite reserved at the moment, but will gradually open up in the glass, so go slow and enjoy watching as it reveals itself over time. Stored properly, it should improve for many years to come and greatly reward patience.
