Portola Vineyards 2012 Los Trancos Creek Vineyard Pinot Noir (Santa Clara Valley)

Country: US / Los Trancos Creek Vineyard
Variety: Pinot Noir California
Winery: Portola Vineyards / Santa Clara Valley

Grown along the Bay Area’s Peninsula near the heart of Silicon Valley, this wine is brisk and energetic, with raspberry, pomegranate, dried ginger, sage, rose petals and lavender on the nose. Earthiness leads the slightly sour palate, with turned dirt, juniper and iron, finishing on a menthol sensation.
