🏰 The 2022 Lingua Franca Estate Pinot Noir is a 【masterclass in vineyard expression】, showcasing bold tension and character from its Eola-Amity Hills terroir. This vintage, noted for its ripe ruby color, offers a captivating bouquet of red fruits like raspberry and pomegranate, intertwined with juicy red cherry. The palate is medium-bodied with moderate, round tannins, bright acidity, and a delightful balance of sweet and savory notes, leading to a mineral-driven, saline finish. Expect delicate aromas of wild berries, fresh rose petals, and herbs de Provence, complemented by citrus rind, rooibos tea, and cassia bark. 🍴 This versatile Pinot Noir pairs beautifully with a wide array of dishes, from loin of lamb and Filet Mignon to pasta with Bolognese sauce and charcuterie. It's also surprisingly adaptable to Asian cuisine like Kalbi, Bulgogi, Teriyaki, and Chinese broccoli beef. 🥂 Ideal for a sophisticated dinner party, a special meal with friends, or any celebratory occasion where a beautifully structured and expressive Pinot Noir is desired. Enjoy now or cellar until 2036.
