Rich, medium to full-bodied, and fleshy, with the more rounded, supple style of the vintage, it's ideal for enjoying over the coming 7-8 years, probably longer, but there's no need to delay gratification more than a year or two. Maturity: 2021 - 2029."

Inky red/purplish fruit, lavender, spice, mint and mocha infuse the 2019 with gorgeous layers of textural sumptuousness. This extroverted, flamboyant Pinot is totally seductive from the very first taste. Drinking Window: 2024 - 2034."

(7/14/2022) "The medium ruby colored 2019 Pinot Noir Ryan Jentoft Vineyard is boldly fruited and youthfully toasty, offering layers of cranberries, black cherries, tea leaves, underbrush, graphite and potpourri. Medium-bodied and silky, it has focused freshness and elegant, earth-laced fruits, finishing long and layered. Drink Date: 2022 - 2032."
