Angeline Mendocino County Reserve Pinot Noir 2023

Angeline Mendocino County Reserve Pinot Noir 2023 is a выразive California Pinot Noir that brings together the sun-ripened character of Mendocino County with the freshness of its cooler coastal influence. Crafted from high-altitude vineyard sites, it stands out for its balance of ripe fruit, lively acidity, and refined oak influence. The result is a polished Reserve bottling that reflects both the elegance and the natural complexity for which Pinot Noir is celebrated.

Makuprofiili
In the glass, this Pinot Noir is likely to show a bright ruby color with a graceful, translucent edge. The nose opens with aromas of red cherry, wild strawberry, and raspberry, layered with hints of spice, earth, and subtle toasted oak. On the palate, it combines juicy red berry fruit with supple tannins and a fresh line of acidity, giving the wine both energy and structure. The use of mostly older French oak adds nuance rather than weight, allowing the fruit to remain the focus. While approachable in its youth, the wine should also hold well over the next few years, gaining extra complexity with short- to medium-term cellaring.

Viininvalmistus
The grapes for this Reserve Pinot Noir come from high-elevation vineyards in Mendocino County, where warm daytime temperatures are tempered by cool nights, allowing for slow, even ripening. Night harvesting helps preserve freshness and aromatic purity, and the fruit is destemmed before undergoing gentle fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. A portion of the wine is then matured in French oak barrels, mainly used oak, to build texture and depth without overpowering the pure fruit expression.

Ruoka & tarjoilu
This Pinot Noir pairs beautifully with roasted duck, mushroom risotto, grilled salmon, herb-roasted chicken, or dishes featuring earthy vegetables and mild spices. Serve it slightly chilled, ideally around 16-18°C, to bring out its freshness and fragrance. Decanting is not essential, but a brief aeration can help open the wine if enjoyed young.
