2021 Holloran Pinot Noir ANA
Tasting notes
Tasting Notes: Pure dark cherry aromas and hints of violet emerge with a little swirling, leading to a mid-palate showing an array of flavors with strawberry and cherry in the fore. The finish is quite textural, and seamless as it extends.
Pairing: Try with Skillet Chicken with Rhubarb.
Drinking: 2024-2036, decant in the early years*

The 2021 growing season was warmer than the 20-year average. The ‘heat dome’ experienced in late June (temps over 115 for a couple days) had no significant effect as the berries had just set. We picked by hand, then hand sorted, and destemmed 100%. We fermented primarily with cultivated yeasts. After a gentle pressing, we aged it 11 months in French oak barrels, 8% new, then another 7 months in neutral French oak.
