About the wine
This stunning single-vineyard Pinot is a smooth, barrel-aged beauty
- Don’t be fooled by this red’s light, delicate smoothness – each sip is a dive into deep, complex layers of dark fruit flavors and a subtle dash of spice, all elegantly wrapped into a long, luxurious finish.
- With your support behind him, Derek sourced pristine hand-picked grapes from a single vineyard deep in the heart of Anderson Valley, where Pinot ripens evenly and steadily thanks to warm, sunny days and cool nights.
- Wines from this caliber of vineyard in this corner of California wine country easily start at over $40 a bottle, but for empowering Derek to work with some of the best Pinot around, you get this irresistible red for less than half that price!
Best before
This wine will easily age 5 to 10 years and likely longer. If you prefer bright, fresh fruit flavors enjoy the wine now. If you enjoy smoother, more refined flavors from a little aging, lay your bottle down for a while.
Serving advice
For best results, open with dinner. This is most assuredly a food wine that's meant to be paired with lamb, pork, or ideally Wagyu beef.
Food match
This Pinot will pair beautifully with a steak, especially Wagyu beef. This wine - and Wagyu beef - are both complex without being overpowering and the earthy, robust flavors of the wine pair perfectly with this finely-textured meat.
Contains sulphites
