Tasting notes
Medium ruby-purple, the 2019 Pinot Noir Lewis MacGregor Estate Vineyard has pure, layered scents of raspberry preserves, licorice, laurel leaves, pipe tobacco and pepper, with tinges of mushroom and bergamot coming through as it airs in the glass. The medium-bodied palate is powerful and intense, with a grainy, fresh frame and latent finish that suggests this will have more to give after another 2-3 years in bottle.

Notes of strawberry, cherry and citrus highlight a medium-bodied experience of stony minerality and savory forest floor. Dense and concentrated, it shows lasting acidity that adroitly lifts the fruit and woody oak. — Virginie Boone
A floral nose of roses and violets, accented by notes of baking spice and red cherries. Full-bodied with sandy, easy-going tannins, wrapped by ripe raspberry, black-cherry and clove flavors. Lovely hints of nutmeg and allspice. Fresh acidity. Drink or hold.
