Cool maritime air of the Los Carneros region coupled with warm, sunny days yields this silky Pinot Noir. Rich aromas of black cherry, blackberry and dried sage lead to notes of dark fruits with plush tannins, balanced acidity, and hints of smoky caramel from aging in French oak barrels.
The Los Carneros AVA includes both the famous wine growing regions of Sonoma & Napa counties. Receiving its AVA status in 1983, Carneros area was the first wine region in California to be defined by its climate characteristics rather than political boundaries.

"Here is a bold Pinot Noir that’s long on aromas and flavors of tart raspberry, fall spice and zippy citrus zest, the latter of which serves to keep everything bright and mouth-watering. It’s the type of Pinot Noir that will appeal to a wide audience, either as a solo glass or a pair for chicken, salmon, turkey or lean beef."
• Wine Enthusiast Magazine (92 Points)
"This flavorful and well-polished wine offers a delicious blend of raspberries and black cherries on a texture of light tannins and good acidity. It is well-balanced, smooth around the edges and lingers long on the finish" - Jim Gordon
