WINE DESCRIPTION
Alma Rosa La Encantada Vineyard Pinot Noir is a stunning expression of the varietal. On the nose, aromas of tart cherry, raspberry, and red plum mingle with subtle notes of fresh earth, dried herbs, and a hint of smoke. On the palate, the wine is bright and juicy, with vivid flavors of fresh red fruits, earthy spices, and a hint of vanilla. The finish is long and smooth, with a touch of spice lingering on the tongue. Enjoy this wine now, or cellar it for up to 5 years for even more complexity.

ORIGINS
Winery: Alma Rosa
Region: Central Coast California
The Central Coast of California is a wine lover's paradise, boasting a wide variety of climates, soils, and grape varieties. Located between San Francisco and Los Angeles, the Central Coast spans from Monterey County in the north to Santa Barbara County in the south. With its diverse topography and Mediterranean climate, the Central Coast is home to some of the most renowned wineries in the United States.
The Central Coast has a long and storied history of winemaking, dating back to the mid-1800s. The first vineyards were planted in the Santa Clara Valley, and by the late 1800s, the region was producing some of the finest wines in the country. The region's reputation for quality wines was further solidified in the early 1989, when the Santa Clara Valley was declared among the first American Viticultural Area (AVA) in the United States.CUSTOMER RATING
