CIRQ represents Browne's pursuit of extraordinary Pinot Noir, combining the lush generosity of the Russian River Valley with the finesse, structure, and complexity of the world's great Burgundies. Produced in limited quantities from carefully selected vineyards, this is Pinot Noir crafted without compromise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2022 is bold, seductive, and beautifully layered, bursting with aromas of ripe black cherry, wild raspberry, strawberry preserves, and rose petals, intertwined with exotic baking spice, toasted cedar, and subtle forest floor. The palate is rich and luxurious, delivering concentrated dark berry fruit, cherry liqueur, hints of black tea, and a touch of orange zest. Silky, finely integrated tannins and vibrant acidity provide remarkable balance, while the finish is exceptionally long, revealing layers of savory spice, earthy minerality, and beautifully polished oak.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is not a shy, delicate Pinot Noir. CIRQ embraces the richness and intensity of California fruit while maintaining the elegance and precision that distinguish truly exceptional wines. Aged for 15 months in French oak, the 2022 possesses impressive depth and structure, with the potential to develop beautifully over the next decade and beyond.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SWIRL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49798215074098,"sku":"500000000007289","price":179.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0044\/7165\/2425\/files\/CirqEstatePinotNoirRussianRiverValley.png?v=1793843538","url":"https:\/\/www.vintagewinemerchants.com\/products\/2022-cirq-estate-pinot-noir-russian-river-valley","provider":"Vintage Wine Merchants","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
