Pinot Noir

Santa Cruz Mountains

Enjoy this bold and elegant wine made from high-elevation grapes, featuring dazzling dark berry flavors, balanced acidity, and matured tannins.

PERSONALITY

Delectable aromas of dark cherry, raspberry, and a hint of licorice as well as attractive bouquets of cedar, anise, and a hint of roasted beans.  Dazzling dark berry flavor expands on the palate.  Supple acidity and matured tannins melt into the mid-palate and provide the exquisite mouthfeel with finesse and depth.  A nuance of elegant oak notes adds a touch of spiciness and tension to the delightful finish.  Bold and elegant.
