Monterey Vineyards Pinot Noir

Fragrant aromas of ripe black cherries sun-warmed roses and spices lead to the silky bright flavors of this Pinot Noir. Hints of tobacco from terroir and smoky incense from Hungarian and French oak barrels add complexity. Fine tannins and balanced acidity frame the red-berry flavors midpalate and then enliven the vibrant finish. This smooth easy-to-love wine marries with a broad range of foods including grilled salmon or ahi tuna herb-roasted chicken or pork loin and lamb or beef kabobs with succulent mushrooms.- Chalone Vineyard
