Donum Estate, Carneros – Sonoma County (California) West Slope, Single Block Reserve Pinot Noir 2020 $145

Wine label

100% Donum selection Pinot Noir clone makes up this wine, which was the only wine on Donum’s menu for the first several years. It is a rare 2020 red from the region, picked before any fire that caused many growers nightmares. An early harvest shows itself here in brighter acidity and a slight tartness to the red fruit notes. There is plenty of finish push, and though it already has a few years under its belt, it has a lot of life ahead.
