Winemaker Notes
Bright and refreshing, the 2015 FEL Anderson Valley Pinot Noir, has loads of fresh raspberry and pie cherry aromatics up front. With time in the glass, more nuanced aromas of mint, black tea, and dried sage add depth and complexity. Flavors of alpine strawberry, pomegranate, and kirsch provide an enticing entry
to the palate. The wine’s generous acidity and silky tannins provide a lengthy finish that leaves the taster reaching for another sip. This elegant wine will easily age for at least a decade.

Wine Enthusiast
This delicious, accessible, easy-sipping wine has everything in moderation, from gently fruity aromas, to light but complex flavors of plum, black tea and spices, to medium body and a supple mouthfeel. It will taste good on practically any occasion.

Established in March 2014, FEL Wines produces Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Pinot Gris from the Anderson Valley and the Sonoma Coast. Meticulously crafted by Winemaker Ryan Hodgins, FEL also features a unique portfolio of vineyard designate wines, including both Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from our estate Savoy Vineyard.
The letters in FEL represent Florence Elsie Lede, Proprietor Cliff Lede’s mother, a home winemaker who provided the early inspiration for Lede’s love of wine.
Growing up in Alberta, Canada, Cliff remembers the tulip as signifying the end of winter, bringing with it a freshness and excitement of warmer days ahead. The FEL label, featuring an illustration of an opening tulip, is a tribute to Florence’s passion for gardening.
