Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

The 2012 Estate Grown Pinot Noir is brilliant ruby in color, with subtle floral aromas giving way to richer cherry and forest floor as the wines opens up in the glass. The palate shows layers of cherry and berry, balanced with the slightest hint of cinnamon lingering on the finish. Fresh yet surprisingly lush, the acidity is perfectly balanced by the ripe fruit flavors.

Professional Ratings

  • 90
    A bouquet of wild strawberry is what first comes to mind, followed by tight, soft tannins and swirls of leathery raspberry. Several different clones of Pinot from different blocks go into this wine, an approachable, layered beauty.
  • 90
    Exhibits a fresh, snappy mix of raspberry, licorice, graphite, dried herb and cedar notes, with the tannins lending the flavors traction. Drink now through 2022. 1,727 cases made.

Robert Stemmler's passion for winemaking spans over forty years. A native of Germany, Robert Stemmler completed his formal education in winemaking and viticulture at Bad Kreuznach wine college in Germany.
