Our third vintage from one of our largest estate-farmed vineyards, the 2012 Gregory Ranch Pinot Noir captures the beauty and opulence of the 2012 vintage like lightning in a bottle.
The wine is dark cherry in color and has an outrageously opulent aromatic panoply of ripe dark fresh fruits like blackberries, marion berries and dark cherries commingled with sweet floral notes including vanilla, clove, cinnamon and star anise. This Pinot Noir has a full-bodied character but also shows great balance between fleshy, sweet tannins and wonderful acidity. This is a monumental Pinot Noir and quite different from the elegantly framed 2010 and 2011 wines from this vineyard. Our 2012 version is more full throttle and will be enjoyable young, but the brambly and floral notes that are the trademark for this vineyard shine through beautifully. Drink 2013-2020.
