title: Durant 2012 Bishop Vineyard Pinot Noir (Dundee Hills)
description: This compelling and distinctive wine is redolent with scents and flavors of sweet cherry and pipe tobacco. It punches up the palate and tickles the nostrils. Crafted from old vine Pommard (planted in 1973 and 1984) and cropped down to three-quarters of a ton per acre, this spent 14 months in 20% new French oak. It's one of those Pinots that requires your full attention.
variety: Pinot Noir
designation: Bishop Vineyard
