Carneros Los Carneros Reserve Pinot Noir, 2002

This wine balances structure and elegance, at once firm and lush in texture, exuding Bing cherry, spice and toasted almond aromas. We allowed it fourteen months in French oak, knitting these flavors together, adding subtle smoke and vanilla to the finish. While drinking well now, it has the depth to reward aging for five or more years. A Passion for Pinot Noir since 1972.
