Steele Shooting Star Pinot Noir

Steele Shooting Star Pinot Noir

Wine Information
Vineyards: Although Lake County would not strike one as being the most ideal growing region for Pinot Noir, the unique growing conditions do provide a few locations to grow Pinot. The Dorn and Lyon families took on the Pinot Challenge, grafting clone 32 Pinot Noir onto established vines. Each successive year brings more depth and complexity to this Pinot Noir, proving again the diversity of the Lake County wine scape.
Tasting Notes: This Pinot Noir is aged 9 months in French and Hungarian oak. Aromas are of cranberry, cherry, and cinnamon, followed by flavors of cherries, dried figs and cocoa, this wine finishes elegantly with cinnamon and white pepper.
Food Pairings: Pair with a variety of dishes, such as cherry glazed duck breast, Leek & pecorino pizza, roasted mushroom and feta tart, or fig and paté bruschetta
