Sands Point 2012 Pinot Noir (Central Coast)

Country: US / California
Variety: Pinot Noir
Winery: Sands Point /

Amid the blackberry and asphalt tones, this has a funky rubber twist on the nose. The bottling is a side label of Avelina, founded by former Oreana Winery owner Christian Garvin. It’s tart and sour on the palate, with dried raspberries and a bit more funk.
