Cline Family Cellars Pinot Noir 2016
Sonoma Coast, Sonoma County, California, United StatesThis pinot is all hand-harvested at about 3 tons to the acre. The fruit comes off three ‘Sonoma Coast’ sites including Lazy C Vineyard in the cool ‘Petaluma Gap’ and the Lazy P and M ranches located a few miles north. The sites are often fogbound in the morning extending the growing season and enhancing flavours. It’s aged eight months in 40 percent new French oak with a n additional portion of American and Eastern European barrels. The family id highly committed to sustainable agriculture. Look for a ripe, California style with rich strawberry and candied cherry fruit with smoky, spicy, vanilla undertones with a warm, earthy, black tea undercurrent. A style you can sip solo or pair up with salmon, grilled vegetables or even a favourite curry dish.Tasted: 11 June 2018Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:| BC | $29.99 | 750ml | private wine shops |
