ready-keep2016 Au Bon Climat Pinot Noir, Santa Maria Valley

A nod to Burgundy but with lots of ripe, bright New World fruit, this Pinot Noir has a cool nose of strawberry and ripe cherry fruit with warming hints of sweet spice. On the palate, it is fleshy and generous with lots of ripe red berry fruit with fine, polished tannins and a lovely freshness on the generously long finish. Drink now to 2026.
