Who knew you could have this grippy of tannin in a Pinot. Still super smooth and very earthy.

A vivid garnet, the beguiling '12 Cambria Pinot Noir 'Clone 23' offers an exotic bouquet of red cherry, blueberry, vanilla and spicy oak. The style is big and bold with mouth-coating bitter cherry and dark chocolate flavors. Well-delineated tannins precede the chewy and persistent finish with cracked pepper and anise notes lingering to the end.

Another stunning effort was the '11 Cambria Pinot Noir 'Clone 23'. It's was amazing to detect the subtle variations the different clones made on the aromatic and flavor profiles. This effort showcased creamy dark fruit flavors on the mouth with lush sweet tannins on the lingering finish.
