Pinot Noir

Pinot Noir Wine Details
Price: $28.00 per bottle

Description: Seven separate clonal selections of Pinot Noir grow on the Truchard Estate Vineyard. Each clone provides a unique element of fruit, spice, and texture to the final blend. The vines are planted in select sites that take full advantage of the thin soils, rolling hills, and cooler temperatures of the Carneros region. The 2002 Pinot Noir, has rich, smoky aromas of ripe plum and strawberry; highlighted with notes of tea, citrus blossom, and sweet vanilla. The mouth is broad and silky: layered with flavors of plum jam, cherry, cranberry, and toasted oak. Balanced acidity and delicate tannins focus these flavors into an earthy finish of spiced red fruits.
