So much peach, tangerine and mandarin orange aromas then goes to oyster shell and bark and then follows through to a medium body with lots of tension and fine tannins that take you down deep. Dried orange peel. Delicious and vivid finish. Drink or hold.

A dark red color, the 2021 Pinot Noir Gap's Crown Vineyard is ripe and expressively detailed on the nose, with notes of cherry liqueur, pie spices, candied flowers, and sweet sage. Medium to full-bodied, it’s ripe and beautifully textured, with plush, ripe tannins and a long, supple finish. A gorgeous wine, it’s going to age gracefully over the next 10-12 years. - Audrey Frick

The broody yet polished 2021 Pinot Noir Gap's Crown Vineyard was matured for 17 months in 41% new French oak. It has aromas of blueberry, pomegranate, licorice, iron and nori. The palate is vibrant and light on its feet with nuanced, spicy flavors and a long, elegant finish. - Erin Brooks
