Cherry, raspberry, cranberry, loamy earth, vanilla and oak. Good structure and soft tannins.

Lovely purity of fruit in Square Peg's 2014 Estate Block 8 Dry Farmed Pinot Noir from Green Valley. Grown at an 800' elevation a mere eight miles from the Pacific Ocean—winemaker William Knuttel has coaxed red berries from this cool climate Pinot along with nuanced aromas of underbrush, rose petal, dried orange peel, and baking spice. I particularly love the acid here, as it courses through a tart cherry and cranberry core, a spray of arrows, homing in on a mouthwatering finish tipped in white pepper. 14.5% ABV | Sample

Pretty outstanding. Decanted two hours. Big cherry and red fruit, a little hot on the back.

@Derrick if you can get your hands on a few bottles, please do. Otherwise, visit me in CA.
