2017 Fáinne Pinot noir
Rich garnet color with classic Fairsing tones of lavender, violet, and ocean spray.
Plummy dark fruit flavors marry with a cola verve on the palate.
Our barrel-select Fáinne Pinot noir balances earthiness and elegance.
A supple entry glides to a strong middle and back palate presence. This wine is layered and concentrated, and benefits from an intentional elevage program with emphasis on toasted and spicier barrels.
Distinguished by its finesse and structure, this wine is bound for beautiful development in the cellar.
This 2017 barrel select Fáinne Pinot noir is a comprehensive compilation of our finest blocks from across the vineyard composed of Dijon 115, 114, 667, 777, Pommard, and Wadenswil.
This wine was fermented in two-ton fermenters and then moved to barrels, 60% of which were new French oak.
Toasted and spicier barrels are sourced from our Fáinne program from coopers Sirugue and Billon with emphasis on the Troncais and Allier forests. Aged in barrel 16 months, this wine was bottled December 13, 2018. The final alcohol is 14.0%
