Orin Swift Slander Pinot Noir

$72.97

Pouring into the glass with a glowing crimson core, the 2023 Slander opens with classic California Pinot Noir aromatics of black cherry, strawberry compote, wild raspberry and a dusting of white pepper and puff pastry. Ripe red fruits on the entry lead to a mid-palate of berry galette, a touch of blueberry and redcurrant. Focused and bright throughout the palate, the wine finishes with a gentle drying tannin structure and a pleasing close.

Description

Staying humble and letting the grapes do the talking is how we get better at winemaking every vintage. Pinot Noir requires even more humility, especially in the vineyards – when the grapes are ready, they’re ready. Requiring a gentler approach with punchdowns rather than pumpovers, Pinot Noir expresses itself when it is lead manipulated. Slander is the union of California Pinot Noir made in the Orin Swift signature style delivering a bold and expressive wine.
