J Vineyards California Pinot Noir
Product image may differ from the actual product.
This Pinot Noir has aromatic notes of exotic spice, black cherry preserves, and black tea. A soft, silky palate with fruity flavor notes of cranberry, fig, and fresh orange peel, with hints of dark, brambly fruit, black tea and clove. Sourced from vineyards in Monterey, Sonoma, and Santa Barbara California.
Winemaker Notes: In 2016, the growing season in California was warm and dry. Following suit with the four previous vintages, the year continued to be an earlier, more compact growing season. Plenty of winter rains and a warm spring brought on early budbreak and a warm, fast-paced summer growing season. Another early harvest, 2016 finished a full 10 days earlier than average. Consistent warm temperatures through September rewarded us with incredible intensity and depth of flavor. In 2016, we looked to Sonoma, Monterey and Santa Barbara Counties to deliver complex layers of aroma, flavor and texture for a truly distinctive Pinot Noir.
Appellation: 51% Monterey County, 26% Santa Barbara, 23% Sonoma County
