The 2018 Indindoli Pinot comes from the vineyard I helped plant with Carmine Indindoli, my vineyard mentor, on Black Oak and Olivet Lane in 2007.  Crafted from clones 115 and 667, it is a captivating expression of elegance and complexity. This Pinot shows Strawberry and Rhubard with hints of vanilla om the nose.  Flavors of caramelized Rhubarb, clove and Asian spice linger on the velvety and silky texture. The wine is both complex and comforting, begging for the next sip.

2022 Pinot Noir, Jenks Vineyard

The 2021 Jenks Pinot Noir is beautifully colored crimson red hue, the wine expresses the pleasing aromatics we have come to love about this vineyard of ripe tree fruits, wild berries, fresh sage, lavender, cinnamon, forest floor, leather, and roasted nuts.  This Pinot Noir continues its reputation with excessively rich, dense and captivating flavors of black raspberry, bright cherry, cherry cola, blueberry and pomegranate.  The wine has layers of Asian spice, all wrapped with the framework of selective oak barrel. Adding to the complexity, the wine is profiled with a velvety texture, velvety tannins, firm structure, and a wonderfully long finish. Year after year this vineyard creates a wine that is not only consistent in profile but approachable when young and built to age. This wine is very reminiscent of the 2015 and 2016 vintages, which were spectacular drinkers a decade into aging.

The 2017 Jenks Pinot Noir is yet another stunner from John and Jennifer’s vineyard. First off, this wine aged for three years in new French Oak. This Jenks Pinot, like its predecessors, doesn’t disappoint and every year this wine keeps getting more interesting.  The 2017 is earthy, leathery, and loaded with tobacco on the nose.  This is very silky wine on the pallet with plum, raspberry and blackberry compote and caramelized Rhubarb notes on the pallet. The 2017 Jenks is a smooth, round pinot with a lengthy finish. Extracted and rich, yet balanced and beautiful, the 2017 Jenks is a wine you will love to share with your friends.
