2022 Bethel Heights Pinot Noir Casteel Eola-Amity Hills Magnum

Named for the wind that defines our EolaAmity Hills AVA, the Æolian Pinot Noir is our vehicle to explore the dynamic evolving landscape that we farm. The sense of place and specificity that we value most highly in our wines takes many years to evolve. With our oldest vines we allow each block to speak for itself in a separate bottling. The second-generation vines at Bethel Heights, on the other hand, are just beginning to find their voice. In these years in between, the Æolian allows us the freedom to dream of what lies beyond the horizon.

The 2022 Aeolian presents both purity and power; aromas of red cherry, rhubarb and raspberry, tremendous tension through the mid palate, and delicate fine grain tannins through the finish.
