The 2019 Francis Tannahill, ‘The Hermit’ Pinot Noir, proudly proclaims its Dundee Hills origin with a classic nose of ripe red cherries, dried cranberries, vanilla beans, and wet gravel. Notes of blonde roasted coffee beans and Iris petals add to its allure. Flavors of dried sweet tobacco leaves and toasted caramel grace the palate alongside flavors of ripe red berries and hints of forest floor. Firm acidity and polished tannins create a structured, mouthwatering delight. Its finish endures with lingering baking spices and traces of grilled plum.
