Beaux Freres Pinot Noir Beaux Freres

”Tasting Notes: A bit darker medium to dark ruby. A darker more brooding and fuller bodied wine our original estate vineyard Pinot is approachable but ideally will benefit from several years of patience. Clearly one of out best vintages given the richness and purity of the spectrum of red blue and black fruits on parade and virtually no oak showing despite being raised in 50% of the finest new French oak. About this Bottling This wine is made from the fruit grown in our original estate vineyard. The Beaux Freres Vineyard was planted by Mike & Jackie Etzel from 1987 – 1991 primarily to Pommard & Wadenswil clones on their own roots. This 24 acre vineyard started out with conventional farming techniques but in 2002 Mike started following the principals of biodynamics. An average vine age of about 25 years puts this vineyard in the prime of its life. This wine as always is 100% from our original estate vineyard.” – Beaux Freres
