Failla Ferrington Vineyard Pinot Noir 2021

Failla Ferrington Vineyard Pinot Noir 2021 is a beautifully expressive Pinot Noir from Anderson Valley, showcasing the region’s signature herbaceous lift, spice, and layered red fruit. Crafted by Failla with a restrained, site-first approach, it balances youthful charm with the depth and structure to age gracefully. This is a classic, place-driven California Pinot Noir with real pedigree.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it offers a vibrant, translucent ruby hue typical of fine Pinot Noir. The nose is fragrant and complex, with notes of wild herbs, baking spice, fresh cherries, raspberries, and darker forest berries, all underscored by a subtle floral perfume. The palate is supple yet energetic, with juicy red fruit, savory spice, and polished berry-like tannins that give the wine a graceful, textural finish. A bright line of acidity keeps everything fresh and focused, while the low alcohol and ripe tannin profile suggest strong aging potential over the next several years.

Production
Ferrington Vineyard in Anderson Valley brings cool-climate charm to the wine, with moderate warmth during the growing season and cooling conditions at harvest helping preserve acidity and aromatic detail. The 2021 vintage delivered small yields and excellent tannin maturity at low alcohol, resulting in a wine with freshness, poise, and concentration. Failla’s minimalist vinification lets the vineyard character shine through with clarity and precision.

Food & Serving
This Pinot Noir is an excellent match for roast duck, herb-crusted salmon, mushroom risotto, grilled salmon, or poultry with earthy sauces. Serve slightly cool, around 14–16°C, to highlight its aromatics and freshness. Decanting for 20–30 minutes can help open the wine in its youth, though it is also very enjoyable straight from the bottle.
