Country: US / Ryan Vineyard
Variety: Pinot Noir California
Winery: Calera / Mt. Harlan
This is one of the most forward and accessible of Calera’s new releases. It’s superrich now in black cherry liqueur, mocha, licorice, bacon and spice flavors, a seductively silky wine that’s a total hedonistic pleasure. If you can keep from drinking it now, it should develop well over the next 6–8 years.
