2020 Fox and the Flock Pinot Noir

This 2020 Fox and the Flock Pinot Noir impresses with brilliant notes of black raspberry and California cherry. On the palate, this light red wine is well-structured and bursting with strawberry fruit jam and bright acidity, tempered by earthy notes of portobello mushroom, crushed basil, and pomegranate. The finish is long and smooth with a kiss of French Oak vanilla and toasted coconut flakes. This Fox and the Flock Pinot originates from the famed California wine district of Lodi. While this region is primarily known for its teeming vineyards of Zinfandel, the radiant, sunny days and cool, relaxed nights are the perfect nourishment for these Pinot grapes. The relatively high temperatures allow for refreshing acidity and a delicious burst of jammy fruit, creating a glass that’s truly greater than the sum of its parts. If you’re seeking a pair for this prime Pinot Noir, look towards lighter meat dishes like a roast turkey sandwich dappled with cranberry sauce or a hunk of crispy French bread with mixed cheeses and dried fruit.
