Description

Peay Vineyards Cep Wines Pinot Noir 2021

The Cep label is a second label from Peay Vineyards, made solely from barrels of Peay Vineyards’ estate wines that through the blending process were not selected for the first label, or are from the Hopkins vineyard in the Russian River Valley.

Grape Varietals & Region: 100% Pinot Noir from the West Sonoma Coast estate vineyards.

Taste Profile: Cep Pinot noir delivers the balance and elegance you expect from de-classified barrels of Peay Vineyards’ Estate Pinot noirs. The high-toned nose captivates with raspberry/strawberry notes mingled with deeper anise and tea notes. The mouth feel is round though precise with a medium length finish brought into focus by refreshing acidity

Shouldered & Powerful Reds

Powerful modern reds with the ability to age. They tend to be very intense, with ripe fruit, firm tannins & drinkability either young or cellared.

They often have notes of forest floor, blackcurrant, mint & eucalyptus
