Kutch McDougall Ranch Pinot Noir 2021
From a vineyard planted in 1998 at an elevation of 1,010 feet, nestled just 3.5 miles from the Pacific Ocean, our Pinot Noir thrives in rocky Greywacke and sandstone soils. Located above the fog line, it boasts the warmest microclimate that Kutch winery collaborates with. This wine, crafted with 50% whole bunch, enchants with its sweetly aromatic bouquet, evoking ripe cherries and berries, complemented by a subtle liqueur-like richness and delicate hints of green foliage in the background. On the palate, it reveals its sweet, fruity essence, supported by a firm grip that adds depth to its lush character. An open and inviting experience, it maintains structural integrity beneath the layers of perfumed, sweet, and silky fruit, culminating in a bright and captivating finish. It's truly a wine that embodies sheer loveliness.
Pinot Noir pairs well with dishes like roasted chicken or salmon due to its versatile, light-to-medium body and vibrant red fruit flavors.
