The story behind Iter
Pinot Noir is the grape that refuses to be easy. Thin skinned, early ripening, fussy about climate, it makes pale, aromatic reds with red cherry, earth and a gentle grip of tannin when it is handled well. Iter Pinot Noir is built in that softer, food friendly style rather than the dense, extracted one. We do not have a verified estate history for the Iter label, so we will not invent one. What we can tell you is what the bottle does: bright fruit, modest weight, a clean finish that leaves room on the table.
That is the Pinot Noir we keep on the shelf for people who want a red with dinner on a Tuesday, not a speech. Serve it slightly cool, around 55 to 60 degrees, and it shows better than it does straight from a warm room.
