D.H. Elliott Monterey Podium Pinot Noir 2017
About the wine
A special Reserve-edition Pinot - from your favorite man of mystery!
- This is a rich and robust Pinot that's full of lively fruit flavors and the finesse only a seasoned winemaker like D.H. can bring!
- Using Angel funding, D.H. sniffed out his most luxurious offering yet – an elegant, cool-climate Pinot from the hills of Monterey. These same grapes are used in top-dollar coastal Pinots, but per usual, D.H. has to keep his sources under wraps.
- Get a top-secret Pinot (from a producer that "rarely has any extra to spare!" DH insists) that's yours for an even more hush-hush price – $12.99.
Best before
Ready to drink, but will develop bottle bouquet with further aging.
Serving advice
Writing this prior to bottling, I don't know if it will benefit from time to breathe. I like to try the wine as I pop the cork, and as it breathes.
Food match
Grilled salmon
Contains sulphites
Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - D.H. Elliott
- D.H. is the man behind the curtain - the seasoned winemaker who’s spent over 40 years and 50 harvests crafting everyday brands for huge chains like Total Wines and BevMo.
- No doubt, with all that experience, Dave’s made hundreds of wine connections. And he's leaning on them to find you the top California wines at best deal – he promises you'll never pay over $15 per bottle! Great wine, he says, can be easy on your pocketbook. Now that’s a winemaker to love.
- He’s been lucky enough to see dozens of countries as a winemaker, crossing the equator every year for work. And with Angels’ help, he’s making wine under his own label for the very first time… after 4 decades in the biz, it’s a brave new world!
