The Fess Parker Older Barrel Pinot Noir 2014 is an artful, delicate expression of the Pinot Noir varietal. This wine was aged in neutral French oak in order to allow woodsy fruit flavors to shine. The nose is full of forest flavors such as wild strawberry, raspberry, sassafrass, cigar box, black tea, rose petal, and vanilla. The palate is smooth, with flavors of cranberry, red plum, and currant. This red wine has nicely balanced acidity and a hint of minerality on the finish. Enjoy this complex and flavorful red wine.
