2017 Sierra Madre Vineyard Pinot Noir
Santa Maria Valley
The Sierra Madre Pinot Noir is sourced solely from the Sierra Madre Vineyard on the Western edge of Santa Maria Valley. This cool vineyard contributes mouthwatering flavors of cranberry and blueberry. We aged this Pinot Noir in 20% in new French Oak Barrels 9 months. This aging process provokes a nose of freshly picked cherries, cedar and earth. The finished wine showcases flavors of blueberry, pomegranate, cranberry and infused tea that is nicely balanced with hints of toasted oak. This showcase wine is a true homage to classic Burgundian Pinot Noirs.
Pairing suggestion:
Cherry Glazed Salmon, Smoked Santa Maria Tri-Tip
