2017 King Estate Pinot Envy Pinot Noir
-
Tasting Notes
-
Leading with a brooding dark ruby red color, 2017 Pinot Envy is a complex wine that has remarkable aromas of cigar box, ripe black cherries, graphite, clove and raspberry. There are dark fruit flavors like blackberry and black cherry that are followed by subtle notes of black tea, graham cracker, toast and earth. This is round and silky on the palate with a mouth-coating, full texture. Enjoy now and through at least 2030.

Vineyard Notes
-
Freud said that sometimes a cigar is just a cigar. This wine is not just a wine. Pinot Envy is carefully crafted from the finest fruit in Oregon’s Willamette Valley.

Winemaker Notes
-
These 100% Pinot Noir grapes are meticulously hand-sorted before being de stemmed. A cold soak for 48 hours before stainless steel fermentation with daily punch downs and pump overs is followed by malolactic fermentation. These distinct vineyards lots are barrel-aged for 10 months in French oak barrels before we make the final blend.
