2007 Vista Verde Vineyard Pinot Noir
2007 Vista Verde Vineyard Pinot Noir
Winemaker's Notes

Ripened aromas of wild cherries, rose petals, violets, mocha, minerals and exotic spice come through the nose of this wine. It shows richer and broader tannins than the 2006 version, with better overall concentration and depth of fruit. Sweet red fruits, notes of earth and a long, lingering finish complete this wine. Needs time to mature in the bottle.

—Winemaker Bob Cabral
