Domaine Eden Santa Cruz Mountains Pinot Noir 2021
- In stock, ready to ship
Domaine Eden is the second label of Mount Eden, found just a stone's throw away from the estate atop a neighbouring mountaintop. Farmed sustainably, this vineyard is almost entirely north-facing, relatively unique for a vineyard in the Northern Hemisphere but ideal for protecting the gentle, mountaintop Pinot Noir fruit. A mosaic of different clonal selections, this wine was made to the same exacting standards as those of Mount Eden - indigenously fermented, aged in old French Burgundy barrels, and bottled without fining or filtering. Loaded with spicy aromas of red fruit, this is a wine with true potential for the future.
94/100 - The 2021 Pinot Noir is 90% from Domaine Eden, with the remainder both from Mount Eden and some from grower vineyards, all cool-climate sites. It’s made in a rich, softer style than the Mount Eden, with no new oak, instead aged in 2- to 5-year-old barrels used previously for Mount Eden. It tastes of wild mountain strawberry, raspberry and a hint of forest floor, melding together into a seamlessly balanced, medium-bodied expression of great winemaking from great sites. Drink now through 2031. - Jeb Dunnuck
92/100 - Vibrant aromas of raspberry sherbet, purple flowers, forest floor and lilacs introduce the 2021 Pinot Noir. The palate is slender, fresh and light to medium-bodied, showing lifted, fresh acidity and youthful, mellow tannins on the finish. As always, this is a fantastic value and offers an alluring introduction to Mount Eden's winemaking style.- Matthew Luczy, Wine Advocate
On the palate, broad with delightfully concentrated notes of blue and red fruit alongside touches of spice and a long, sapid finish.
Enjoyable in its youth, best enjoyed after 4-5 years of cellaring.
Consider pairing alongside Coq au vin, grilled salmon with herb butter, or wild mushroom risotto.
