2017 Jenkins Ranch Pinot Noir

The 2017 Pinot Noir Jenkins Ranch was made with 10% whole cluster and aged in 40% new oak. It's pale to medium ruby-purple with broody scents of salted meats, aniseed, dried herbs, black cherries, Italian plum and red berry sparks. Light to medium-bodied, it opens slowly in the mouth to spicy fruits enlivened by juicy acidity and well-woven tannins, finishing long and nuanced. This will benefit from another year in bottle. 490 cases produced.
