Sourced from several select sites in Oregon, Firesteed Pinot Noir is light ruby red in color with bright aromas of cherry and perfume on the nose, followed with a textural palate bursting with red fruits, earthy notes, and toast. Silky tannins complement the long lingering finish accompanied by hints of spice, vanilla, and French oak. Aging took place in a combination of small French oak barrels and larger stainless-steel tanks, with approximately 15% new French oak.
