Calera 2012 Selleck Vineyard Pinot Noir (Mt. Harlan)

Country: US / Selleck Vineyard
Variety: Pinot Noir California
Winery: Calera / Mt. Harlan

Cola, sasparilla, cherry blossoms, hard cherry candy and a hint of black currant hit the nose on this rich wine from Josh Jensen. The palate shows brown spice, with clove and peppercorns wrapping around a rhubarb-licorice-thyme character and tart cherries, making for an incredibly distinctive wine.
