2019 Wrath Swan/828 Monterey Pinot Noir 750ml
SKU #5065652
Winery Notes- Sourced from only estate grown grapes, vine yields are closely managed and average about 3.5 to 4 tons to the acre. Grapes are hand picked and hand sorted. Clones are kept in separate lots during fermentation and barrel aging. 20% of the lots were fermented using whole clusters. Once fermented to dryness, lots are aged in an assortment of French oak barrels from various tonnelleries (for added complexity). Wines are barrel aged for around 11 months before bottling. The bottled wine rested again for another 12months before release.

ROBERT PARKER REVIEW: The 2019 Pinot Noir Swan/828 was vinified with 20% whole clusters and matured for 10 months in 25% new French oak. It has pretty aromas of cranberries, red cherries, citrus peel, tea leaves and Angostura bitters. The medium-bodied palate boasts a silky texture, tangy acidity, loads of bright red fruit and a long, spicy finish.
WINE ENTHUSIAST REVIEW: Nori-wrapped cranberry and crystallized red-currant aromas meet with eucalyptus leaf on the dynamic nose of this bottling. Rustic dried meat flavors are enhanced by rose-petal and cranberry flavors on the palate.
