Tasting notes
Savory herbs, tobacco, mint, wild flowers and sweet spices all flesh out in the 2011 Pinot Noir Keefer Ranch Vineyard. A weightless, gracious wine, the 2011 impresses for its energy, pliancy and overall sense of harmony. Darker tonalities of red and purplish fruit wrap around the close. The 2011 is both juicy and vibrant, essentially the best of both worlds in this vintage.

Bright ruby-red. A highly perfumed bouquet evokes red berry liqueur, spicecake and potpourri, with a cola nuance adding depth. Nervy and precise on the palate, offering vibrant raspberry and bitter cherry flavors and a touch of rose pastille. Silky tannins come on late and add shape to a long, juicy finish with a repeating floral note.
