2021 Iron Filbert Vineyard Pinot Noir
A quintessential expression of the Dundee Hills with aromas of candied cherry, Douglas fir tree, black pepper, and lilac. A palpable iron quality shows as the wine opens, true to its place. The palate is generous and full of spiced, peppery aromas and a pure red fruit profile. Made with organically-farmed Pinot Noir from our Dundee Hills, Iron Filbert Estate Vineyard. This wine will age beautifully for 10-15 years.

Wine Spectator
Dynamic and detailed, with precise raspberry and cherry flavors laced with forest floor, steely mineral and black tea as this builds tension toward medium-grained tannins.
James Suckling
Iron, umami, seaweed, and dried strawberry aromas and flavors with black stone. Medium body, racy finish. Closed up at the end. Needs time to open and show class.Â
