The 2020 Lafond Vineyard Pinot Noir is a deep ruby color with violet undertones. Aromas of ripe strawberry, smashed blue fruit, and mild cedar fill the glass. Delicate fruit flavors of strawberry and cherry are followed by rich earth tones of potting soil and mushrooms.
Aromas of baked apple, citrus fruits and pie crust. Citrus and apricot on the palate which is concentrated with a rich, creamy mid palate and strong supporting acidity. The finish is long and marked with hints of vanilla. This wine will continue to build richness as it ages in the bottle.
The 2020 Lafond Vineyard Syrah is a plum color with crimson at the edges. A beautiful bouquet of boysenberry and lavender jumps out of the glass. Strong pepper notes are followed by blackberry and mild leather.
This juicy, rich, and fruit forward clone is known for making a great stand-alone wine. Aromas of toasted vanilla bean and baked cherry pie. The palate is lively with ripe cherry, strawberry, and raspberry flavors. Medium-bodied with rich tannins, and a refreshingly clean acidity that contributes to a lengthy mouth-watering finish.
