Bethel Heights Estate Pinot Noir (2019)

The Pinot Noir Estate incorporates fruit from nearly all of their estate vineyard in various amounts, and as such provides an honest evaluation of the year. The 2019 is a more delicate, earthen offering than the 2018, with delicate red to black fruits over forest floor and dried leaves. Acidy is fresh but not overbearing and the tannins are fine grained, giving shape and texture to this young wine. The Estate is enjoyable upon release, but as is the case with all of Bethel Heights 2019 wines, it will benefit from 8-10 years of aging.
