The 2019 Red Cote is a wild and carnal experience to be savored, offering a cashmere-like silky texture and alluring spices to commence. Fresh and vibrant dark fruit including ripe cherries, cassis, woodsmoke, nori, blackberries and dark chocolate, framed by a lavish application of cedary new oak. It’s full-bodied, fleshy and enveloping, with a ripe core of fruit, powdery tannins and a long, satisfying finish. This Pinot is built to last, and it is a majestic drink now after decanting.

"Adrian Fog was born from the idea that Pinot Noir should have a sense of place and that the vineyard is the birthplace of great wine. All of our vineyards are selected for their individuality. By hand selecting cool climate fruit from small vineyards, Adrian Fog is able to maintain the unique signature and personality of the vineyard. Each vineyard is selected by considering the effect of coastal fog patterns, clonal differences, age and vine orientation to the sun. Picking, fermentation and barrel aging are done by keeping all clones and blocks separate. We are able to learn more and appreciate each wine's nuances and style intimately. Our bottlings are determined by the wine's individuality, our largest bottling is 230 cases and the smallest is 23 cases. Each lot is selected , blended then gravity feed to our custom designed bottling system."
