The 2017 Pinot Noir Jolie, aged in 45% new French oak, has a medium ruby color and opens with a touch of tar and rubber, slowly giving way to smoked cranberries, black cherries, scorched earth, charcuterie and dried herbs with Angostura bitters accents. The palate is medium-bodied with a silken texture and good intensity of earthy red and black fruits, framed with well-woven freshness and grainy tannins, finishing on a red berry note. This needs a good decant. 460 cases produced.
