The 2019 Pinot Noir Ferrington Vineyard has lifted graphitic minerality, red plum, and pine. The palate is energetic and snappy, with lasting red cherry, fine tannins, and mineral-rich earth. Drink 2024-2038.

From the southern portion of the Anderson Valley, the 2019 Pinot Noir Ferrington Vineyard has a medium ruby-purple color and layered, appealingly broody aromas of dried red cherries and cranberry jelly, lilac and blueberries, cast iron and licorice. The palate explodes with deep red fruits and tones of blood orange, with a frame of sandy tannins, bursts of fresh acidity and iron-like tones characterizing the long finish. It deserves another 2-3 years in bottle to continue to unfold.
