Domaine Carneros Avant-Garde Pinot Noir is a vibrant, fruit-forward expression of Carneros Pinot Noir, crafted to herald the fresh fruit qualities of this renowned California region. Sourced principally from the Estate Vineyard near the Chateau and the Stornetta Vineyard in the rolling hills of Western Carneros, this wine showcases the most fragrant characteristics from select lots across both vineyards. Why You'll Love It This is Carneros Pinot Noir with real personality—intensely aromatic, fresh, and lively with delicate balance that makes it incredibly food-friendly. As the newest and most fruit-forward in Domaine Carneros' collection, the Avant-Garde is designed to be the vanguard of the vintage, offering immediate appeal and vibrant fruit character. With 10 months in specially selected French oak barrels, this wine delivers complexity without losing its fresh, approachable charm. Vineyard & Production Sourced from the Estate Vineyard near the Chateau and the Stornetta Vineyard in the rolling hills of Western Carneros. The 2022 vintage experienced a late wet spring followed by almost idyllic growing conditions, with harvest beginning about two weeks later than normal. The wine is fermented in small open-topped tanks and aged for 10 months in French oak Burgundy barrels, specially selected from cooperages that complement the aroma and flavour profile of this wine. Tasting Notes Intensely aromatic with notes of raspberry jam, blackberries, cassis, and baking spices, complemented by hints of dried roses and orange peel. Fresh and lively on the palate with delicate balance, vibrant fruit character, and fine tannins. The finish is elegant and inviting with lingering red fruit and subtle spice. Perfect Pairings A versatile wine that shines with simply prepared dishes like grilled or braised salmon, roasted chicken, veal, pork tenderloin, duck breast, or mushroom risotto. Also enhances the vibrant flavours of Californian and Mediterranean cuisine, including herb-cruste
