2016 Pinot Noir - Black Ridge Vineyard

Back

TASTING NOTES

This 2016 Sonnet offering from the Black Ridge Vineyard has an array of ripe berry fruits, from black cherry to cranberry, to strawberry. It is made from the Pommard clone, known for its earth and racy spice flavours which add great depth to this wine. There is also the delightful Santa Cruz Mountains minerality, not uncommon in pinot from this AVA, that interplays with the subtle oak aromatics, and adds a wonderful complexity to this great Pinot Noir.

This vintage is available for purchase at Silver Mountain Wines.
