2021 “Up Above” Pinot Noir
$38.03
From Wismer-Cuesta Vineyard, Twenty Mile Bench
The Pinot Noir for this wine was hand-picked from the established Cuesta vineyard located just east of Vineland – exactly across the road and up the hill from the winemaker, Ron Giesbrecht’s, family home in Vineland since 1968. As with most of our wines, there is usually a ‘Wending Home’ link to Ron’s past haunts and relationships.
A forward and cherry-driven fruit nose that then extends to a vibrant palate of raspberry, dried herbs, and medium acidity. the length of the finish shows up as stony, spicy, and lifted florals lingering on the palate for minutes.
