Pali Wine Co. Pinot Noir Pali Vineyard Santa Rita Hills 2020 750 ML

Our wild fermented Pinot Noirs have always shown tremendous dimension and outwardly beautiful aromatics, but until 2019 these barrels were only blended with other inoculated Pinot Noir barrels as small but essential components of every Pali Pinot Noir. Bottled on its own, our Wild Series Pinot Noir is unmistakably old-world in style embodying a gem-like garnet color, delicate earthiness, and an alluring perfume. Today, our Wild Series Pinot Noir is made from sustainably farmed Pinot Noir grapes grown on Pali Vineyard in the Sta. Rita Hills in Santa Barbara County. This wine is fermented using wild, naturally occurring yeasts and without the use of conventional winemaking tools and additives including sulfur throughout its elevage. It is fermented in small lots and then aged in entirely neutral French oak barrels for 90 days. This wine is unfined and unfiltered and will naturally develop sediment.\n \n Aromas of dark plum, herb and light peppercorn on the nose lead into pomegranate, black raspberry, red rose and lavender flavors on the palate.\n \n Producer Information\n Pali is a Lompoc-based winery, on the western edge of the iconic Santa Ynez Valley in Santa Barbara County, committed to producing ultra-high-quality wines at fair prices without a shred of snobbery. Pali employs environmentally friendly wine grape growing, and non-invasive winemaking practices. Founded in 2005 with the intent to produce Burgundy-inspired wines from California’s Central Coast, Pali Wine Co. now consists of three brands with distinct focuses. The original Pali brand focuses on premium Pinot Noir and Chardonnay sourced primarily from Pali’s own Santa Rita Hills and Sonoma vineyards.
