Carneros Napa
2020 Hyde Vineyard Pinot Noir
This iconic site consistently delivers one of the most elegant and refined Pinots in our portfolio. The 2020 vintage is more robust and richer than typical, providing layers of red currants, cassis, and Bing cherries along with a lifted purity and freshness that supports elegant and cleansing acidity. The nose is filled with the Hyde Vineyard signature dried rose petals and cardamom/cinnamon spice. The mouth has great depth of texture and flavor, showing composed, refined tannins that are knit together with strawberry, raspberry, and a hint of cocoa and five spice powder. This 2020 is showing a darker more
powerful example of this legendary vineyard.
