The 2012 Pinot Noir Estate from Grace Benoit Ranch, is a wild, intriguing wine laced with gamy, earthy, volcanic notes that add nuance and complexity. Orange peel, savory herb and star anise add exotic overtones on the finish. There is no shortage of nuance here.

An outstanding value in high quality Pinot Noir, the 2012 Pinot Noir Estate is made primarily from Dijon clones. Its dark ruby color is followed by sweet notes of red apple skins, plums, forest floor and red as well as black cherries. Generously endowed with good acidity and freshness, this medium to full-bodied Pinot should drink nicely for 4-5 years.
