Wayfarer 2014 Golden Mean Pinot Noir

This bottling, a co-fermentation of Pommard and Swan clones, opens with aromas of ripe black cherry, raspberry, and plum, layered with notes of rose petal, baking spice, and subtle forest floor. On the palate, it is plush and concentrated, with flavors of dark berry compote, pomegranate, and cocoa unfolding against a backdrop of savory spice and mineral undertones. The tannins are fine-grained yet firm, giving the wine structure and age-worthy potential, while vibrant acidity keeps the richness in check. The finish is long and polished, with lingering notes of fruit and spice that highlight the wine’s complexity and depth.
Food pairings for the 2014 Golden Mean Pinot Noir should emphasize its layered fruit and savory character. Roasted duck with cherry glaze, herb-crusted lamb, or braised short ribs will harmonize with its richness, while mushroom risotto, truffle pasta, or roasted root vegetables will highlight its earthy undertones. Cedar-planked salmon or aged cheeses such as Comté and Gruyère provide elegant counterpoints, allowing the wine’s balance of power and finesse to shine.
