Country: US / Garys’ Vineyard
Variety: Pinot Noir California
Winery: Savannah-Chanelle / Santa Lucia Highlands
The darkest and richest of this winery’s trio of Pinots, a big-boned wine with surface flavors ranging from blackberries and cherries to cola, leather and tobacco. There’s a meatiness to the texture that makes it a perfect match for food. Feels smooth and silky in the mouth, but lacks the depth to merit a higher score.
