2017 Artesa Pinot Noir Los Carneros

Winemaker Notes:  On the nose, this wine offers beautiful, bright aromas of black cherry, plum and a hint of rose petal. On the palate, lush flavors of strawberry, mulberry and blueberry are accentuated with hints of spice and earth. The natural acidity gives vibrancy and it is an excellent partner to so many foods; it is medium bodied and has a long finish. A classic Pinot Noir that is true to its unique appellation.

CRITICAL ACCLAIM

Wine Spectator - "Refined flavors of dried cherry, red currant and plum tart are flanked by touches of membrillo and ample toasty notes. The minerally finish lingers with cooking spice accents."


Wine Enthusiast - "This is full in body, fleshy and widely appealing in style. It's delicately textured in silky tannins, with flavors of cranberry, orange and toasted vanilla. It finishes on tones of cinnamon and cola."
