2021 Mount Riley 17 Valley Pinot Noir

The grapes from which this wine was made were grown on Mount Riley’s Cromarty vineyard located in the Southern Valley’s subregion with soils composed of older glaciated clays. Made from clones 777 and 115 the wine blended create what we consider to be the finest attributes Pinot Noir has to offer.

Grapes were handpicked cold soaked and fermented using indigenous yeast from Mount Riley’s winery and vineyard with a portion fermented as whole clusters.  The wine was then aged for ten months in a mixture of new and seasoned French barrels.
