McIntyre Vineyards 2012 Estate 25th Anniversary Pinot Noir (Santa Lucia Highlands)

Country: US / Estate 25th Anniversary
Variety: Pinot Noir California
Winery: McIntyre Vineyards / Santa Lucia Highlands

The McIntyre family took over their Santa Lucia Highlands vineyards in 1987. The wine kicks off with aromas of black mustard, violet and dark spices. Once sipped, the mouthfeel is rich and full, but the nondescript flavors fall somewhere between tart cranberry and warm strawberry.
