2016 J Wrigley Proposal Block Pinot Noir
Marking the place where John Wrigley proposed to Jody, J Wrigley's Proposal Block is a truly magical place. This wine is a perfect representation of a Burgundian style Pinot Noir. With Pommard dominating the clonal make up, it offers an earthiness that pairs beautifully with braised meats and salmon.

Tasting Notes
The J Wrigley Proposal Block is a blend of predominantly the Pommard clone and finished with clones 777 and 115. It spends an extra year in barrel which lends to a beautifully silky texture. Notes of blackberry and baking spices are present. Proposal Block was the first planting at J Wrigley Vineyards and holds the story of how the owners met and began their dreams of making wine and developing a World Class Estate Winery.
