J. Lohr - Fog’s Reach - Pinot Noir
Overview: A consistent series of winter storms primed the Arroyo Seco AVA with 40% more rainfall than average leading into the 2019 growing season. Annual spring growth started in mid-March and was slow to develop due to cooler than normal temperatures though springtime bloom and well into summer. September was the warmest month of the year, which helped develop the ripe strawberry fruit signature that our Fog’s Reach Pinot Noir has always been known for. Yields were a modest 4 tons per acre, producing a wine with a rich structure and broad palate.
Tasting Notes: The 2019 J. Lohr Fog’s Reach Pinot Noir expresses the varietal terroir of the Arroyo Seco region with blue sage and strawberry compote notes on the nose. Bright flavors of red cherry envelope the palate and leave supple cardamom spice on the lengthy finish.
Pairing: Pair with a mushroom risotto or a board of Spanish charcuterie.
Point: 94, Tasting Panel
Format/ABV: 750 ml/14.5%
In certain circumstances, a specific vintage may not be available. If this is the case, a comparable vintage of the same wine will be substituted for online orders. If shopping in-store, please check the bottle for the appropriate vintage. If you have a question about a specific vintage that is in stock, please email wine@kegnbottle.com
