2021 Limited Release Fringes Pinot Noir

The 2021 Fringes Pinot Noir is a rare treat. The warm vintage produced a lower crop yield leading to excellent color and structure. The palate opens with raspberry, strawberry and spice supported with sweet oak and cleansing acidity. Portions of the crop were fermented in oak puncheons to create a diversity of fruit expression.
