2019 Delara Pinot Noir
Bright cocoa tromps through the initial impression. Firm, chewy, and still youthful tannins provide a good grip on the mountain of fruit at the core of this wine. Climb it and embrace the racing heart, the white knuckles! Teases of inviting, roasted coffee flutter at the edges, but don’t dare get in front of the relentless black cherry parade.

Winemaker Notes
The Momtazis believe in holding vintages
until the wine is fully evolved, rather than
releasing chronologically. Each vintage is
unique and should mature on its own
timeline.
