Winemaking The grapes for this Pinot Noir were picked during the cool early morning hours. After sorting, the fruit was cold soaked for several days. Fermentation occurred in stainless steel tanks with some punch down maceration to achieve balanced extraction of flavor, color, and aromatic compounds. After fermentation, the wine was transferred to barrel. 80% neutral and 20% new French oak was used for the aging of this wine. Once in barrels, time allowed the wine to seamlessly integrate the natural acidity, rich flavors and soft tannins into a beautiful, perfumed Pinot Noir.

The Character
Tasting Notes Possessing shades ranging from garnet to ruby, the 2022 is a captivating coastal expression of Pinot Noir. Aromas of spiced plum, rhubarb, and red cherry mingle with savory notes of black tea and baking spices to form an enticing bouquet. It is bright and lively on the palate with flavors of juicy red cherry, macerated strawberry, and plum. This beauty finishes with fresh acidity and soft, approachable tannins that give added complexity to the noticeable texture from aging in 100% French oak barrels.

These wines are at once approachable, balanced and eminently worthy of the quality standards we have established with Fort Ross” - Owner, Lester Schwartz
