Hartford Court Velvet Sisters Vineyard Pinot Noir 2021

A medium ruby hue, the 2021 Pinot Noir Velvet Sisters is minty and fresh with ripe raspberry, menthol, cinnamon, and quinine. Medium-bodied, with a clean mineral feel, ripe dusty tannins, and notes of tangerine, grenadine, and fresh earth, it's a refreshing wine in the range. Drink 2024-2034.

This wine is lush and vibrant, with aromas of huckleberry, boysenberry and cardamon. The wine is full-bodied with black cherry, violet, allspice, weaving in vanilla cream and dark chocolate to lead up to plush silky tannins. Long ago, I created a story about this wine and the mythical sisters who lived in the forest. Enjoy with meat, poultry, fish and good friends.
