Cliff Lede Pinot Noir, Napa Valley

Cliff Lede Pinot Noir, Napa Valley Wine Details
Price: $25.00 per bottle

Description: Supple, smooth and complex, this lush Pinot Noir is an elegant expression of two excellent mature vineyards in Carneros. The aroma weaves together earth, cedar, and minerals with ripe red fruit and dried apricot. The palate explodes with sappy black cherry flavors laced with orange blossom, hay, cola and morels spiced with nutmeg and clove. The texture is silky and rich but not weighty. Balanced now, it will continue to develop in the cellar. The wine retains a natural haze thanks to minimal handling and the absence of filtration. Serve as a beautiful match for roast duck, roast pork with figs and apricots, or poached salmon.
