"Fermented with 15% stems and aged 10 months in 45% new French oak, the 2021 Pinot Noir Clos Pepe Vineyard reveals a translucent darker ruby hue as well as a terrific array of black raspberries, darker cherries, black tea, and baking spices. This medium-bodied, lively, balanced, elegant Pinot Noir delivers ripe, integrated tannins and outstanding length." -Jeb Dunnuck, 92JD
