Wine Profile

Production Notes
Varietal Composition: 100% Pinot Noir
Winemaker Notes
The 2021 Ryan Vineyard Pinot Noir is bright, lively and beautifully composed with enticing aromas of Rainier cherry, sage and white pepper. On the palate, alluring layers of blackberry, Bing cherry and sarsaparilla are underscored by sleek, age-worthy tannins and that carry the wine to a long, focused finish.
Production
The 2021 growing season began with very little winter rainfall on Mt. Harlan followed by moderate spring temperatures that led to a typically timed budbreak. While the temperate weather led to a uniform bloom and set, overall yields on Mt. Harlan were down significantly. Throughout the remainder of spring and summer the weather continued to be mild, resulting in a somewhat later-than-normal veraison, with harvest commencing just six weeks later. Reflecting the combination of low yields and excellent weather, our 2021 wines display beautiful depth and concentration, with refreshing acidity and full fruit expression.
