Alta Maria Vineyards
Bien Nacido Vineyards Pinot Noir
Dark cherry, wild berries, forest, meaty, spice cake, sandalwood, rhubarb, blood orange. Theres a savory/umami character to the aromas. Palate is very textural with a juxtaposition of bouncy fruit notes, minerals, spice (WC?), and fine tannins. Great poise and balance at 14% abv.
