Hawley Pinot Noir

Hawley Pinot Noir Wine Details
Price: $32.00 per bottle

Description: This Pinot Noir is a rare jewel. Since our own vineyard is a bit too warm to bring out the best in this variety, we buy mountain grown Pinot Noir from a cool, coastal vineyard. We work closely with the grower to control the crop load and maximize the fruit quality. Picked fully ripe, the grapes are cold soaked in small one-ton fermenters prior to fermentation, using the wild yeasts that are naturally present on the fruit. Careful aging in special Burgundy barrels helps add complexity and render a seamless, supple wine with flavors of cherries, plums, oak spice and floral overtones.
