Pali 2012 Huntington Pinot Noir (Santa Barbara County)

Country: US / Huntington
Variety: Pinot Noir California
Winery: Pali / Santa Barbara County

Intensely ripe raspberry and cherry pie flavors mark this wine. Oak brings even greater richness, in the form of buttered cinnamon toast. The finish is dry, and there’s a good burst of acidity. The alcohol is a little hot, but still, it’s a nice, silky wine for drinking now.
