Forefront Pinot Noir
Soft, food friendly Pinot Noir from a small label we stock.
The story behind Forefront
Pinot Noir is the red grape of Burgundy, and it is grown with real success on the North Fork of Long Island, where cool nights keep the fruit fresh. The style tends to be lighter in color and body than Cabernet, with red cherry, cranberry and a touch of earth, and gentle tannin that makes it easy at the table.
Forefront is a small label for us, one to two bottles at a time, and we stock it here in Commack. Ask for it by name at the counter.
