The 2021 Pinot Noir is 90% from Domaine Eden, with the remainder both from Mount Eden and some from grower vineyards, all cool-climate sites. It’s made in a rich, softer style than the Mount Eden, with no new oak, instead aged in 2- to 5-year-old barrels used previously for Mount Eden. It tastes of wild mountain strawberry, raspberry and a hint of forest floor, melding together into a seamlessly balanced, medium-bodied expression of great winemaking from great sites. Drink now through 2031.

Varietal

Pinot Noir

Regularly described as being the grape varietal responsible for producing the world's most romantic wines, Pinot Noir has long been associated with elegance and a broad range of flavors The name means 'black pine' in French, and this is due to the fact that the fruit of this particular varietal is especially dark in color, and hangs in a conical shape, like that of a pine cone. Despite being grown today in almost every wine producing country, Pinot Noir is a notoriously difficult grape variety to cultivate. This is because it is especially susceptible to various forms of mold and mildew, and thrives best in steady, cooler climates. However, the quality of the fruit has ensured that wineries and vintners have persevered with the varietal, and new technologies and methods have overcome many of the problems it presents. Alongside this, the wide popularity and enthusiasm for this grape has ensured it will remain a firm favorite amongst wine drinkers for many years to come.

Country

United States

Of all the New World wine countries, perhaps the one which has demonstrated the most flair for producing high quality wines - using a combination of traditional and forward-thinking contemporary methods - has been the United States of America. For the past couple of centuries, the United States has set about transforming much of its suitable land into vast vineyards, capable of supporting a wide variety of world-class grape varietals which thrive on both the Atlantic and the Pacific coastlines. Of course, we immediately think of sun-drenched California in regards to American wines, with its enormous vineyards responsible for the New World's finest examples of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot based wines, but many other states have taken to viticulture in a big way, with impressive results. Oregon, Washington State and New York have all developed sophisticated and technologically advanced wine cultures of their own, and the output of U.S wineries is increasing each year as more and more people are converted to their produce.

Region

California

California as a wine producing region has grown in size and importance considerably over the past couple of centuries, and today is the proud producer of more than ninety percent of the United States' wines. Indeed, if California was a country, it would be the fourth largest producer of wine in the world, with a vast range of vineyards covering almost half a million acres. The secret to California's success as a wine region has a lot to do with the high quality of its soils, and the fact that it has an extensive Pacific coastline which perfectly tempers the blazing sunshine it experiences all year round. The winds coming off the ocean cool the vines, and the natural valleys and mountainsides which make up most of the state's wine regions make for ideal areas in which to cultivate a variety of high quality grapes.

Dark and intense aromas of plum, graphite, wild thyme and solid show on the nose of this bottling. There's a sizzle of acidity at the tip of the sip, and then come waves of pencil shavings, dark fruit and peppery spices.

Vibrant aromas of raspberry sherbet, purple flowers, forest floor and lilacs introduce the 2021 Pinot Noir. The palate is slender, fresh and light to medium-bodied, showing lifted, fresh acidity and youthful, mellow tannins on the finish. As always, this is a fantastic value and offers an alluring introduction to Mount Eden's winemaking style.

Rose hip and hibiscus notes lead off, followed quickly by racy bitter cherry and damson plum fruit flavors. The long finish shows a spine of black tea and dried anise. There's nice energy throughout. Drink now through 2032. 2,974 cases made.

The 2021 Pinot Noir from Domaine Eden also includes about 10% declassified fruit from the Mount Eden estate. It comes from a mix of the greatest hits of clones—777, Rhys, Mt. Eden, Calera, 828—and underwent native fermentation with 15-20% whole clusters. The result is beautifully rendered and especially elegant, presenting a lifted, heady portrait of floral red and blue fruit and sweet spices. Soft and welcoming, there’s ample flesh on its bones, finishing with a long and sensual candied blood orange tone. This is all about textural harmony.

There's a lift and piquant character to the 2021 Domaine Eden wines, which are a mix of California heritage clones. Aromas of red floral potpourri and rose petals, sassafras spice and a touch of blood orange tartness to finish.

Lively aromas of brambleberries, strawberry leather and blood orange oil before a dusty yet juicy palate of mixed cherries, loganberries and spices. Touches of turned earth and licorice anchor it all. Tight and concentrated, with structured tannins. Drink or hold, but better in a couple of years.

Winery Notes

Grown on a north facing slope at 1600 feet, the grapes were harvested from August 17th - September 16th under perfect late summer days. All fermentations were natural and the wine was aged for 12 months in one to three-year-old French oak. There was no fining or filtration before bottling.
