Frank Family Vineyards Frank Family Vineyards Carneros Pinot Noir 2021 750ml

A fresh and bright pinot with sliced-strawberry, raspberry and orange-peel aromas and flavors. Medium body with fine, racy tannins and a bright and energetic finish. Drink or hold. (James Suckling)

The classic character of Carneros Pinot Noir -- cranberries and spice, red cherries, and an earthy finish -- layered with fresh berries and savory herbs. Approachable tannins and a lengthy finish complete the wine.

Frank Family’s 2021 Pinot Noir is a blend of several vineyards, built around the same primary sources as the Chardonnay and a short (nine-month) élevage in one-third new French oak. Nicely floral, with cinnamon accents to the cherry fruit, it’s medium-bodied, silky and pleasant, an easy-drinking, fun wine, for drinking young.
