Vivacious red fruit twirling ruthlessly on the entry, the 2019 Conifer has the power of early summer sunlight with the tenderness and warmth of a random act of kindness. Peak summer ponderosa pine forest, baked earth, tulips, and cedar dust give way to mandarins and allspice on the palate. Notes of peak ripe berries and cocoa lead to a broad, acid driven finish.
A compelling wine, broad-shouldered yet detailed, offering expressive blueberry and guava flavors, which take on bitter chocolate and forest floor accents as this builds toward medium-grained tannins.
Medium ruby, the 2019 Pinot Noir Conifer opens very meaty and savory, taking time to reveal aniseed, tobacco and a core of dark cherries. Soft and refreshing, the medium-bodied palate features restrained, earth-laced fruit and a long, spicy finish.
Pretty nose of dried roses, strawberries, orange zest, bergamot and nutmeg. Bright and crunchy, with a medium body, fine tannins and a vibrant finish.
