2019 Art Pinot Noir
Rustic in spirit, the 2017 Art Pinot Noir employs rich dark berry notes alongside tobacco, mocha, cinnamon, orange peel and vanilla. This wine is rugged yet refined and pairs perfectly with steak or lamb.
This barrel selection honors Mark's grandfather William Arthur (Art) Hunter, who tenaciously worked his North Dakota farm through the drought of the 1930's. His thrift, hard work and partnership with his wife Isabel, enabled them to send two children to college during the Great Depression.
