J. Wilkes 2007 Solomon Hills Vineyard Pinot Noir (Santa Maria Valley)

Country: US / California
Variety: Pinot Noir
Winery: J. Wilkes / Solomon Hills Vineyard

Shows jammy but somewhat simple cherry candy and mint flavors, the kind that come from young vines. Plenty of tart acidity scours the mouth, creating balance to the fruit. Ultimately, this is a Pinot Noir for drinking soon.
