2021 Dukes Vineyard Dijon 777 pinot noir

2021 Pinot Noir from Dukes Family Vineyard, single clone bottling of Dijon 777 

Located in Eola Amity AVA, Dukes Family Vineyard is an impressive site with nicaya soil and steep, high plantings. We sourced from our two favorite blocks that showcase distinctive tannic, structural and brambly characteristics of the area. The Dukes Family Vineyards are located in the versatile Eola-Amity AVA and they are committed to low impact and sustainable farming methodologies.

This is a bright and "pure" expression of the Dijon 777 clone. We love featuring the Dijon 777 from other vineyards, as there is a consistently bright and expressive quality to this special clone. This bottling offers a definitive minerality on the nose, with bright acidity and juicy cane fruit on the palate, a hallmark of the Eola-Amity AVA. This vineyard has rocky soils and cool nights, expressed as beautifully intense tannins and a soft finish.
