Lemelson Vineyards Pinot Noir 'Jerome Vineyard' 2021

Jerome Reserve Pinot Noir is a collection of the best 20 barrels of the vintage. The 2021 Jerome is a blend of fruit from vineyards in all three of the AVAs that we farm which adds even more depth to this reserve wine. It is a compilation of high elevation Dijon clones from Dundee Hills and Chehalem Mountains, which contribute red fruit and elegance and lower elevation Wadenswil and Pommard clones from Yamhill-Carlton, which contribute richness, spice and earth. The wine exudes cocktail cherry and Italian plum fruit along with milk chocolate, nutmeg, leather and forest floor undertones. It shows amazing balance that leads into a long and juicy finish. This is definitely a bottle that will age well into the next decade.

Aged 16 months in 38% new and 62% used French oak barrels. Indigenous yeast, unfiltered and unfined.
