“The Dead Monkey” is a single-varietal Pinot Noir that was aged in wooden barrels. The wine shows a very elegant and seductive nose with aromas of currants, cherries, strawberries, undergrowth, smoked meat, cloves, slate seasoning, orange zest, chocolate, mineral accents and violets. Juicy, highly elegant, animating on the palate, fine fruit, delicately spicy, deeply mineral, enormous depth, complex, beguiling and lingering for a very long time.
