Melville 2014 Clone 115 Indigene Pinot Noir (Sta. Rita Hills)

Country: US / California
Variety: Pinot Noir
Winery: Melville / Clone 115 Indigene

Plump yet bright with fruit, suave yet spicy with herbs and gamy elements, this bottling shows candied cherry and cranberry alongside sage, eucalyptus and slight barnyard notes. The same juicy red fruit immediately elevates the palate, which is then leveled by lively Mediterranean spice and a buoyant acidity.
