In Sheep's Clothing Pinot Noir
-
Description :
Harvest was marked by a temperate growing season with cooler-than-average temperatures, allowing grapes to ripen slowly and evenly. This resulted in wines with vibrant acidity, expressive fruit flavors, and a refined balance of structure and elegance.
The name is a hat tip to Alonzo Harris (Training Day): "to protect the sheep you gotta catch the wolf, and it takes a wolf to catch a wolf." In Sheep's Clothing Pinot Noir has vibrant acidity, expressive fruit flavors, and a refined balance of structure and elegance.
Winemaking: Grapes are carefully selected from vineyard sites in Oregon. 50% of the wine is fermented in stainless steel and 50% in new oak. The wine rests in barrel for eight months before bottling.Grape varieties :

Tasting notes :
In Sheep's Clothing Pinot Noir opens with inviting aromas of black cherry, ripe raspberry, and crushed cranberry, layered with hints of forest floor, fresh thyme, and a touch of cocoa powder. The palate is supple and silky, offering a harmonious balance between its juicy red fruit core and refreshing acidity. Subtle oak influence adds gentle nuances of clove and toasted almond, while soft tannins provide a smooth, lingering finish.
