St Innocent Pinot Noir Villages Cuvee 2014

Zenith Vineyard 23%, Vitae Springs Vineyard 35%, Temperance Hill 14%, Freedom Hill Vineyard 14%, Momtazi Vineyard 8%, Shea Vineyard 8% | "The 2014 Villages Cuvée Pinot noir is blended to create a "red wine with white meat and fish" profile. The lovely summer and early harvest in 2014 provided clean and ripe fruit. The cooler temperatures in late September created balance with more moderate sugars and nice acidity.

"It has a nose with fresh red cherry, berry, ground spices, menthol, and anise. It is layered in the mouth with bright red cherry, wild berry, spice, and floral notes. The Villages Cuvée will benefit from being opened and decanted for 1-2 hours. Its balanced and layered flavor profile makes it a great match for a wide variety of fish, wild bird, pork and other medium-bodied preparations. Bottled in September 2015, it is approachable now and can be aged up to 5 years to gain complexity."
Wine notes by Mark Vlossak, Winemaker
