2017 Wren Hop Pinot Noir – Dark Carnival Elegance

Discover the Allure of Wren Hop Vineyards’ Dark Carnival Pinot Noir

Experience the captivating essence of Sonoma County’s renowned Russian River Valley with our exceptional 2017 Pinot Noir. Crafted by Wren Hop Vineyards, this small-batch California wine embodies the region’s cool-climate elegance, delivering a sensory journey that enchants both novice enthusiasts and discerning collectors.

Pour a glass and admire its deep, velvety crimson hue—a prelude to an extraordinary aromatic profile. Vibrant notes of crushed dark cherry mingle with intriguing whispers of black raspberry, creating a perfumed bouquet that invites exploration. On the palate, indulge in a rich tapestry of flavors where luscious dark chocolate seamlessly intertwines with ripe berry fruit, culminating in a beautifully balanced and lingering finish.

The secret to its remarkable complexity lies in meticulous aging. This premium Pinot Noir spent 14 months maturing in select tight-grained Tronçais French oak barrels—often revered as the ‘Tunnels of Love’ for their influence. This new oak aging imparts subtle structure and depth without overpowering the wine’s inherent fruit character, resulting in a sophisticated yet approachable red wine.

Perfectly expressing its Russian River Valley terroir at 14.5% alcohol, this artisanal Pinot Noir is ideal for savoring now or carefully cellaring. Elevate your next dinner party or enjoy a moment of quiet indulgence with this standout expression of California winemaking.
