Ramal Vineyard Pinot Noir
Carneros, North Coast, California, USA
Bright blackberry jam, a touch of earthiness, acid is still present and fresh. What it lacks in depth it makes up for in super up front fruit that keeps you coming back for another whiff or another sip. I bought this on my first trip to Napa/Sonoma three years ago.

Cherries and raspberries on the nose, with some earth, baking spice and a whisper of vanilla. Smooth and balanced in the mouth; acids giving welcome structure and nary a hint of the 14.1 abv. Cherry pie and vanilla and some spice -- a real treat.

Found this gem on Last Bottle! Visited the winery last week. I love their Pinots! Best in Sonoma/Napa if you ask me :) their Chards are excellent as well! Gorgeous winery and super informative tour with Clair. We met Theresa the wine maker too! Put it on your list!
