"Delicious black fruits do most of the talking in this effusive, fresh wine packed with blueberries, black raspberries and black cherries. A fresh, lively texture and very low key oak influence keep it vibrant and focused." 

Winemaker Notes: 

"This is a classic Sebastopol Hills, elegant and juicy Pinot Noir showing a beautiful garnet coloring. It is silky but also has some nice pop from the perfectly balanced acidity to give it backbone. The clone 23 from Marshall Ranch lent great color and structure to the wine, while the Naidu Estate gives it some aromatic lift. On the palate are notes of purple fruit - plum, dark cherry, and blackberry. The wine is fragrant and complex with a subtle hint of spice of the mildly sweet kinds — baking spice and allspice. The bright acidity lifts the wine, and the complex structure leads to a smooth and languid finish on the palate, enticing you back for more."
