“Rose petal, pomegranate and an herbal blast of oregano and marjoram show on the nose of this bottling from an historic producer in the mountains east of Salinas. The palate is snappy in acidity with plenty of herbal influence, offering thyme-flecked strawberry-sauce flavors.”

Winemaker Notes:

“The 2021 Estate Pinot Noir reveals aromas of freshly picked cherries, vanilla, and violet with hints of graphite and wet stone. On the palate, savory red fruit flavors of raspberry and plum are complimented with a touch of cinnamon, nutmeg, and clove. A silky mouthfeel delivers a plush mid-palate with a viscosity of creamy tannins and balanced acidity.”
