The flagship wine, and perhaps the most consistent in flavor profile from year to year, the 2018 Carneros Pinot Noir is immediately recognizable on the nose thanks to the aroma of sassafras, which is joined by strawberry, black cherry, and a hint of earthiness, perhaps even mushroom. Red fruit leads on the palate, with a slightly floral undertone, and a concentrated, earthy finish. The palate is supported by fine-grained, well-integrated tannin.
