"Medium ruby-purple, the 2019 Pinot Noir Cuvée Agustina Katherine Lindsay Estate is bursting with cranberry, blueberry and blood orange, with wafts of violet, tea leaves and conifer. The medium-bodied palate is powerful yet weightless, with loads of perfumed flavor layers, seamless acidity and an incredibly long, fragrant finish." - Erin Brooks

2019

Pinot Noir, Cuvée Agustina, Katherine Lindsay Estate

Cuvée Agustina is a barrel selection from our Katherine Lindsay Estate that exudes refinement and class. Our new vintage brings an alluring dark ruby and fragrant boysenberry, anise, and hibiscus tea. Black raspberry and Damson plum add depth along the mid-palate leading to flavors of savory thyme and an iron-like minerality that introduces a bright acidity and firm tannins to the wine's elegant texture that holds through the long finish.

Growing Season

2019 was truly a remarkable year that may in time prove to be the standout vintage of the decade. The season began with steady winter precipitation and cool springtime temperatures helping preserve soil moistures throughout much of the growing season. After a rare May rainstorm, warm and dry conditions followed providing an optimal bloom and fruit set. The mild temperatures over the summer allowed grapes to ripen slowly and develop their phenolics gradually on the vine, a welcome sign for our team. After the record-breaking 2018 crop, 2019 came in much closer to historical averages. Harvest kicked off September 6 and lasted seven weeks, within its typical timeframe, bringing in fruit with exceptional energy, precision, purity of flavors, and superb balance.
