Flat Top Hills Cellars 2021/22 Pinot Noir

The Flat Top Hills Cellars 2021/22 Pinot Noir was crafted from California-grown Pinot Noir fruit sourced from several cool to moderate growing regions to balance lushness with vibrant acidity. In making this wine, careful attention is paid to gentle handling and vinification that lets varietal character shine, with minimal intervention and a focus on fruit purity. The grapes are generally destemmed, fermented with controlled extraction, and matured in neutral or light French oak to add subtle complexity without overwhelming the delicate Pinot Noir profile. The result is an approachable yet expressive wine that highlights California’s warmth while keeping structure and freshness at the fore.

Tasting Notes:
Bright ruby in the glass, this Pinot Noir offers a lively aromatic profile of cherry, raspberry, and wild strawberry, with hints of herbal mint, cinnamon, and forest floor adding depth. On the palate, you’ll find a mix of fresh red and pink fruit alongside plum, cedar, and earthier undertones, with medium body, integrated tannins, and bright acidity giving good balance and a smooth, lingering finish with subtle spice and mineral notes.
