2016 Estate Grown LUX Pinot Noir
Regular price $50.00
While all vintages have special qualities that make them enjoyable in their own way, 2016 was one with rare conditions that all led to a pitch perfect season. In this special vintage, the Lux draws from just four select barrels exclusively from the southwest aspect of Luminous Hills with an emphasis on the lower elevation Pommard (three quarters of the blend), but a supporting role of the 777 clone planted on Jory volcanic at the higher elevations of the southwest aspect (one quarter of the blend). The result is a well structured more muscular wine with predominant darker fruit components, but balancing finesse. 25% whole cluster fermented and barrel aged in all French cooperage (25% new Seguin Moreau forest blend, with the remaining once, twice and three times filled).
