Tasting notes
Pale to medium ruby, the 2017 Pinot Noir La Cruz Vineyard has a bright, open nose of fresh cranberry, Bing cherries, warm raspberries and spicy blackberries with touches of pomegranate, underbrush, dusty earth, amaro and citrus peel. Light to medium-bodied, the palate is intense and spicy, with a soft frame and juicy acidity on the long, energetic finish.

A classic, spice-filled effort, the medium ruby-colored 2017 Pinot Noir La Cruz Vineyard offers loads of sweet red fruits, stems, pepper, and sous bois aromas and flavors. Medium to full-bodied, elegant, and just incredibly complex, it stays perfectly balanced and is a terrific effort.
Attractively bright, ripe red cherries are nice and pure here â really fresh. The palate has a sleek feel with fresh, fine tannins that carry plenty of bright, ripe-fruit flavor. Fresh and smooth. Drink or hold.
