Ceritas Elliott Vineyard Pinot Noir 2020

Ceritas Elliott Vineyard Pinot Noir 2020 is a beautifully poised California Pinot Noir that combines intensity with finesse. From one of Ceritas’ most distinctive sites, it offers remarkable depth from tiny, concentrated berries, along with the natural freshness that makes this wine so compelling now and especially rewarding with a little patience.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows a bright, polished ruby tone that hints at its energy and elegance. The nose opens with vivid red cherry, cranberry, rose petals, sandalwood, pepper, and wild herbs, creating a fragrant and layered bouquet. On the palate, the wine mirrors those aromas with red cherry and cranberry at the core, then broadens into fresh raspberry, bay leaf, and spice. Its refined acidity carries the finish beautifully, giving the wine both lift and precision. Enjoyable now for its clarity and freshness, it also has the structure and concentration to develop gracefully over the next 2–3 years and beyond.

Production
Elliott Vineyard is a special Pinot Noir site in California, known for producing small berries with exceptional concentration and naturally vibrant acidity. Ceritas works with a restrained, site-focused approach that lets the vineyard speak clearly, resulting in a wine that balances depth, detail, and freshness rather than sheer weight.

Food & Serving
This Pinot Noir is a natural match for dishes like roast duck, herb-crusted salmon, mushroom risotto, grilled quail, or slow-roasted chicken. Serve it slightly cool, ideally around 14–16°C, and consider a short decant of 20–30 minutes if opening young, to let the aromatics unfold fully.
