Description
The B Side Pinot Noir offers lifted aromas of fresh black cherry, rose petal, and brewed black tea. The nose rings true on the palate with layers of cherry and briar patch fruit, Portabella mushroom, soy, and pomegranate flavors. The wine is a bigger style of Pinot Noir with broad, upfront fruit and beautiful coastal climate influences with characteristics of forest floor, spice, and complex gamey notes. With bright acidity that heightens the texture and overall length, this wine is incredibly food-friendly. The wine is aged exclusively in French oak for 12 months with 40% of the blend in new barrels (Dargaud et Jaegle & Remond Allier) while the remaining portion of the blend is in seasoned, one to two-year-old barrels, which provide an outstanding framework for the high-quality fruit in the final blend.
