The 2012 Estate Pinot Noir expresses exceptional aromatic complexity with notes of fresh black cherries and subtle rhubarb, followed by hints of toasted oak and ripe cranberry. This wine has flavors of raspberry, dried thyme, tobacco and finishes with a hint of black pepper. Medium in body, it expresses the savory mineral and earth characteristics of the Arroyo Grande Valley and pairs nicely with pan seared filet mignon or grilled salmon.
