Belle Pente Pinot Noir Riona's Block Yamhill-Carlton 2019

MCF Rare Wine

This is first vintage of the fabulous Riona's Block Pinot Noir, a special selection of six barrels sourced from a portion of the estate vineyard that was planted in 1999, the same year that Jill and Brian's daughter Riona was born.  Per their own verbiage - "This block is distinctive due to a vein of volcanic ash embedded in the sandstone formation beneath the vineyard, and since the block is now mature (like it's namesake!), we plan to make a small block-designated offering every year. For the debut rendition, the wine features 40% whole cluster fermentation, providing aromatic complexity and smooth, mouth filling tannins."
