Tasting Notes

Named after the 1.7 billion year old plateau these Pinot Noir vines are grown on. We’ve selected the best barrel from our original 1983 plantings showing our finest expression of Pinot Noir. Fresh tobacco leaves, thyme and lemon rind on the bouquet and a palate laced with ripe cherries, bouquet garni and tempered chocolate.
