Fetzer Pinot Noir Reserve Bien Nacido Vineyard 1998

Santa Maria Valley, Santa Barbara County, Central Coast, California, United StatesRipe plum and cherry fruit aromas with spicy, orange rind and forest/barnyard undertones. Round and concentrated with somewhat dry, tight tannins. Good toasty oak, orange, plum and cherry flavours. A bit big and alcoholic. Will need a few years to soften and reduce the oak.Tasted: 01 March 2001Tasted by: Stuart TobePrices:
