Description
Afleet Pinot Noir is like that friend you can’t get enough of – great depth and personality in spades. Crafted with whole-cluster fermentation (skins, seeds and all), this wine opens with vibrant red and black fruit, violet and blood orange aromas. A distinctive tannic backbone carries subtle earth and savory spice notes on the palate. This is a wine, like that friend, you’ll want to keep coming back to.

With exceptional breadth, depth, and personality, Afleet pinot noir red wine has lifted floral notes and pleasantly rustic tannins. Orange blossom and jasmine meld with honeydew, passionfruit, and candied apple aromas. An earthy, juicy mid-palate leads into a smooth and silky finish with lovely acidity.
