Wine Review: This very light red colored Pinot opens with a fragrant wild strawberry and oak bouquet. On the palate, this wine is light to medium bodied, balanced, soft and elegant. The flavor profile is a pleasant mild strawberry with notes of nicely integrated minerality and Bing cherry. I also detected hints of vanilla oak in the background. The finish is dry and flavors drift away nicely. This Pinot is very food friendly and would pair nicely with a charcuterie featuring salami, ham, pates and terrines. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: The 2013 Reserve is a blend of our best barrels of the 2013 vintage. Comprised of Pinot Noir clones 667, 777, 115, Pommard and 828, it exhibits rich aromas of cherries and raspberries with notes of cedar and vanilla. It is an elegant wine with a lush, silky texture and rich, long finish.
