Rhys Vineyards Alpine Vineyard Pinot Noir 2019

The Rhys Vineyards Alpine Vineyard Pinot Noir 2019 is a profound expression of this exceptional high-altitude site in the Santa Cruz Mountains. Sourced from small, high-density blocks, this vintage captures the unique mineral tension and cool-climate focus characteristic of Alpine. Following rigorous farming and minimal intervention winemaking, the wine exhibits tremendous complexity. Expect an aromatic profile of bright red cherry, wild strawberry, and subtle forest floor, underlined by a savory, crushed-rock minerality. The palate is elegant, structured, and lifted by refreshing acidity, showcasing fine-grained tannins and remarkable length. This Pinot Noir is built for aging, promising even greater integration and depth over the next decade.
