WINE DESCRIPTION

Cambria Pinot Noir Clone 4 is a premium wine produced by Cambria Estate Winery, located in the Santa Maria Valley appellation of California. The vineyard features cool climate conditions and well-draining soils, which are ideal for growing Pinot Noir grapes. The winemaking process involves handpicking the grapes and fermenting them in small batches to ensure optimal flavor extraction. The resulting wine is a beautiful expression of the varietal, with aromas of dark cherry and raspberry, and flavors of blackberry and spice. The wine has a medium body and a smooth finish, making it a perfect pairing for a variety of dishes, from grilled salmon to roasted duck.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Cambria Pinot Noir Clone 4 is a wonderfully balanced and fruit-forward expression of the variety.On the nose, aromas of ripe cherry, raspberry, and baking spice lead the way, with hints of cedar, tobacco, and leather in the background. On the palate, more dark fruit flavors come to the fore, along with a silky texture and a bit of earthiness. The finish is long and lingering, with a pleasant acidity that helps to balance the ripe fruit. This is a great example of a classic California Pinot Noir.

ORIGINS

Winery: Cambria

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.
