Tasting notes
Pliant, finely sketched and racy in the glass, with tremendous fruit purity and exceptional balance, the 2015 Pinot Noir Trout Gulch simply has it all. The bright red berry, chalk, white pepper and floral notes pulse with tremendous energy and a level of crystalline precision that is hard to capture with words. The 90% accentuate the wine's sizzling minerality. Simply put, the 2015 is a stunning Santa Cruz Mountains Pinot and a modern-day benchmark for California. Don't miss it.
