NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This Saintsbury Pratt Vineyard Pinot Noir is a ripe, juicy, and vibrant expression of the variety.Aromas of black cherry, raspberry, baking spices, and earthy forest floor are followed by intense, concentrated flavors of dark fruits, savory herbs, and dried tobacco. The plush tannins are balanced and well integrated, while the finish lingers with a delicious herbal and savory character. Enjoy this with grilled lamb chops or steak.
