Country: US / Boekenoogen Vineyard
Variety: Pinot Noir California
Winery: Wrath / Santa Lucia Highlands
Strawberry syrup, scarlet-red rose petals, warm licorice-laced cookies and dried sage combine for a brilliant nose from this reliably exciting vineyard, planted by a longtime cattle ranching family. Flavors of raspberry torte and ripe red fruits float across the palate, with added complexity from lifting mint and lively yeast elements.
