15.4% is crazy but it's worth it after 1 hour.

2016 Vintage. 15.9% Alcohol! Pinot Noir made like big Syrah. Great with truffle pizza in Carmel for Pebble Beach Concours weekend on the patio at DiNapoli.

A pinot like no other. Liquified chocolate covered cherries. Easily a 60 second finish. There’s nothing subtle about this wine, and I loved it.
