A large majority of the fruit comes from ungrafted vines that were planted over 30 years ago and are framed completely organic and biodynamic. The 2018 Bishop’s Creek rests on 50% new French oak that very much compliments the wine’s luscious fruit flavors and doesn’t overpower. The Bishop’s Creek Pinot Noir always delivers, think aromas of crushed wild blackberry, white cracked peppercorn, dried lavender, toasted almonds and sweet baking spices. The palate presents gorgeous red and dark fruit flavors with added components of black raspberry, green olive and brown mushroom. The wine is balanced, luscious, and delicious. Only 290 cases made. Highly recommended.
