Description
Crafted on Long Island’s North Fork by the boutique Hounds Tree estate, this unique Pinot Noir/Petit blend captures the maritime character of New York wine country. Sun-kissed days and cool Atlantic breezes coax small lots of Pinot Noir and Petit Verdot to optimal ripeness, yielding berries packed with vibrant acidity and refined structure. After hand harvesting, the varieties are fermented separately with native yeasts, then married and aged ten months in seasoned French oak, allowing delicate red-fruited elegance to mingle with darker, inky depth.
In the glass the wine shimmers garnet with violet flashes. Lifted aromas of wild strawberry, ripe cranberry, and black cherry unfold alongside hints of lavender, forest floor, and a whisper of vanilla bean. The palate is medium-bodied yet layered: silky Pinot Noir tannins deliver juicy raspberry and pomegranate, while Petit Verdot contributes blackberry, cocoa nib, and a savory cedar finish. Bright acidity keeps each sip refreshing, making this 750 mL bottle equally suited to casual weeknight pours or celebratory dinners.
Serve slightly chilled with herb-roasted duck breast, cedar-plank salmon, mushroom risotto, or an artisanal cheese board.
