2021 Earl Stephens Pinot Noir

A classic and polished example of Russian River Valley Pinot Noir, an intense dark garnet matches the intensity of aromatics, evolving from bright tart red cherries to fresh plum, juniper and mountain mint. Beautifully balanced between fruit, acid and tannins this wine is already showing depth of fruit: tart cherries and italian plums as well as herbal and oak influences. This wine will age beautifully and reward those who can lay it down for 2+ years.
