Country: US / Duvarita Vineyard
Variety: Pinot Noir California
Winery: Chanin / Santa Barbara County
A bit lighter and less complex than Gavin Chanin’s other bottlings this vintage, this wine is still impressively fresh, vibrant and may age better than the others. Aromas of red cherry, red plum, vanilla bean, wet slate, rose hips and a touch of fennel pop on the nose. The palate shows underripe cherry that’s spiced by white pepper, dill, bay leaf, peppercorns and eucalyptus oil.
