Wine Details
Price:
$26.50 per bottle
Description:
Second release of our limited production individual vineyard also located in the heart of the Santa Rita Hills. Our top award winning wine from 2001 is followed in consistency with this 2002. Deep rich color brings brilliance to this unique Pinot. The vineyard is very small and produces only 200 cases of our wine exclusively. This wine is young but not too much to drink it in winter by the fireplace. While it possesses the intensity of the last vintage it is also young enough to cellar for a few years and add to it’s excellence. The wine sits pleasantly on your pallet with definite extraction. Balance and smoothness give a long lingering finish. Some formidable tannins holds it in check, but it is not overpowered and compliments the wine’s complexity. This goes incredibly well with Duck with Raspberry Pinot Noir reduced sauce, or succulent New Zealand Lamb and Rosemary glaze or a perfect filet from your favorite butcher. Many have enjoyed sipping on this wine all by itself!!
