What to Expect
California has long struggled with Pinot Noir. Finding the right vineyards for this most fickle of grape, one that enjoys a cool growing season yet needs warmth close to harvest to fully ripen, has proven a challenge in such a sunny state. Cooler areas eventually became identified; the Santa Rita Hills, Russian River Valley and Mendocino's Anderson valley are all prime spots for Pinot Noir in California. Unlike the lighter colored and sometimes delicate Pinots of Burgundy, California produces many rich, deep Pinots full of slightly chewy dark berry and cherry fruits with hints of cola, Asian spices and forest floor frequently adding complexity.

This Elizabeth's Reserve is blend of barrel selection of the finest lots of Pinot noir in our cellars. This wonderfully rich wine layers abundant raspberry and black cherry fruit, a luscious mouthfeel complemented by balanced oak, and a long, complex finish. The wine's elegant structure and round, soft tannins will allow it to develop for at least a decade, given proper storage conditions.
