Sarah’s Vineyard Dwarf Oak Pinot Noir Santa Clara Valley 2018

Description

Rich, Bing cherry, raspberry, plum and roses — the 2018 Santa Clara Valley Pinot Noir is a bouquet of red fruit and flowers. The bright red fruit aromas and flavors jump to the nose and palate with a hint of sage. A touch of vanilla bean and spice from the barrels both fill out the “middle” and complete the long finish.

Winemaker Tim Slater suggests pairing grilled salmon with a beurre blanc sauce, a simple roast chicken and grilled vegetables or a pancetta-wrapped pork tenderloin.
