Gehricke Wines Los Carneros Pinot Noir 2016

The deep garnet hue allures aromas of blood orange, red plums and rhubarb. With time, the spice character enters with notes of cherry pie laced with vanilla, cinnamon and nutmeg. At first, this wine seems savory and spice driven with clove and nutmeg. After some time, it blossoms and lays fleshy on the palate with ripe plum flavors and a dried cranberry center. Well-integrated oak rounds out the palate and carries out the finish.
