2021 Scott Family Estate Pinot Noir
Wines
In Stock
A soft and decadent 100% Pinot Noir with aromas and flavors of cherry, sage, ripe raspberries and earthy notes. Richly textured and medium-bodied with balanced acidity creating a smooth, lingering finish.
Our vineyards in Monterey's Arroyo Seco were first planted more than 50 years years ago. We worked tirelessly until the right blend of rootstock and clonal selection yielded perfection. Founded in 2008, our Scott Family Estate wines were named after the maternal grandfather of the family.

Wine Profile
Vineyard Notes
Arroyo Seco “Dry Creek”, a sub-appellation of the Monterey AVA, enjoys a cool climate, producing an extended growing season (often 2 to 4 weeks longer than Napa Valley). This additional hang time allows for greater fruit ripening and brighter acidity. Our estate vineyards, inland from Big Sur, have deep, gravelly soils, ideal for opulent Pinot Noir cultivation. This unique combination of soil and climate produces relatively small berries with intense, concentrated flavors.
Food Pairing Notes
Pair our Scott Family Estate Pinot Noir with hearty and richly flavored dishes like paté, or a portobello burger.
