About Masut 2019 Estate Pinot Noir, Eagle Peak, Mendocino
This wine is produced by the third generation of the Fetzer family. Ben and Jake Fetzer purchased the Masut Ranch in 1992 to grow organic Pinot Noir. Of course the family's roots go far back in that region and was ahead of its time as the region is now considered one of the very best areas for growing Pinot Noir in all of California. The high elevation vineyard, around 1,000 feet above sea level is 35 acres of Pinot Noir which straddle the western mountains at the headwaters of the Russian River. It's located in the brand new Eagle Peak AVA.
Masút Vineyard & Winery Pinot Noir is a refined red wine, rich in flavors of berries and cherries, with hints of spice and earthy undertones. The fruit is sourced from a pristine hillside vineyard in California, where the grapes are nurtured and handpicked to ensure the highest quality. The wine is aged in French oak barrels for at least 10 months to add complexity and depth to the flavor. This Pinot Noir shows excellent balance between fruitiness and acidity, making it a versatile choice for pairing with various meals.
Wine Enthusiast scored this 93 points saying "A savory sage aroma hints at the complexity and interest to be found in this charming, complete and full-bodied wine. Accents of cinnamon, nutmeg and chaparral blend with red cherry and rhubarb on the palate, while light tannins give it just enough grip in the texture."
