2018 Hartford Court Arrendell Vineyard Pinot Noir
"The 2018 Pinot Noir Arrendell Vineyard was aged for 16months in French oak barrels, 44% new. Pale to medium ruby-purple colored, it needs coaxing to reveal notes of crushed stones, tilled earth, fallen leaves, and unsmoked cigars with a core of Bing cherries, raspberries, and red currants, plus a waft of dried Provence herbs. Medium-bodied, elegant, and with fantastic finesse, the palate is silky and refreshing, finishing long and earthy" - Lisa Perrotti-Brown, Robert Parker Wine Advocate, January 2021
