- A brilliant ruby red color, the 2019 ‘Evenstad Reserve Pinot Noir expresses aromas of dark dried cherries, pink peppercorn, and saddle leather on the nose. On the palate, layers of composed tannins and savory characters of cherrywood, ground sage and dried shiitake mushrooms reveal themselves, leading to an acidic finish that lingers with soft and silky tannins. This Pinot Noir is beautiful on release and will age gracefully in the cellar for years to come.
