Domaine Roy

2018 Dundee Hills Incline Pinot Noir

The 2018 vintage was idyllic. It offered steady ripening without heat spikes and lower than average precipitation in the late season, which allowed vintners to pick to suite their style. This made for wines that have juicy and delineated fruit, similar to the 2016 and 2005 vintages, but with lower alcohols. We believe this vintage will be heralded as one of the greats!

 

The 2018 Dundee Hills Incline from our Iron Filbert Vineyard has flamboyant aromas of nectarine, raspberry, hibiscus and rose. On the palate, it shows a deep intense flavor profile, rounded by silky tannins. Although this wine has lots of flavor concentration, it maintains a remarkable balance. We anticipate it will drink well for 10+ years.
