Morlet Family Vineyards Description
For generations, our family has been growing the Pinot Noir grape in France. When our children were young, we celebrated this commitment each harvest as they stomped a small vat of Pinot Noir from the Sonoma Coast. Handcrafted using classical Burgundian winemaking techniques, thisspecial wine is dedicated to our grandparents, parents and relatives from both countries. As with any family celebration or casual gathering, this wine is to be appreciated ‘En Famille.’
Vinous: 92 Points
The 2020 Pinot Noir En Famille opens with loads of crushed red berry fruit, spice, blood orange and cedar. Bright acids and expressive floral notes add gorgeous lift to this racy, sumptuous Pinot.
Wine Advocate: 91 Points
The 2020 Pinot Noir En Famille comes from a southeastern-facing parcel and was fermented entirely in puncheons. There's a slight beetroot character on the nose and root beer notes that extend to earthy spice and minty hints of wintergreen. It's medium to full-bodied, plump and supple, even a bit soft, finishing with velvety tannins.
