This Cakebread project is producing solid wines at fair prices. Vibrant aromas of dark maraschino cherry play against earthy compost and loam elements on the engaging nose of this bottling. The palate is firmly texture, framing baked berry and mashed plum flavors alongside that persistently savory earth tone.

Fresh aromas of dried strawberries, wild raspberries, dried herbs and wet bark. The palate is light-bodied with crunchy tannins and bright acidity, giving flavors of cranberries, rhubarb and spices. Well balanced and fresh. Drink now.
Winemaker Notes
Our Pinot Noir from California’s San Luis Obispo Coast is deep and thoughtful, with layers that are well worth getting to know. Ripe plum, black cherry, and raspberry reach out first, with a whisper of cedar and a wink of baking spice. This California Pinot pairs well with others – especially the ones you love.
