Tasting Notes

Our 2021 nth DEGREE Pinot Noir is dark ruby in color and shows aromas of black cherry and ripe cranberry that are framed by vanilla and toasted oak. Rich flavors of black cherry, cola, and baking spices linger on the palate. This Pinot is full bodied and finished with polished tannins. This wine will pair nicely with mushroom risotto or soft goat cheese on sweet French bread with a dash of savory olive tapenade.
