The Character
Tasting Notes There’s an appealing dark garnet color that immediately implies depth. The nose is upfront – fresh and bright. Flavors and aromas include stewed fruit, cherry cola, allspice, nutmeg, dried orange rind, and enoki mushrooms. The palate evolves to mild savory herbal notes with a faint kiss of toasty oak and mild earthiness. This is an approachable expression of Pinot Noir. Perfect when you’re watching “Sideways” or anything with Paul Giamatti in it.
Pairings Olive bread, wild salmon, goat cheese, seared duck breast
The Story
Los Primeros – meaning “the first” – honors the early winegrowing pioneers in California who planted vines along the coast. Today, those same areas, inland from the Pacific Ocean, produce California’s most sought after Pinot Noir grapes. Our vineyards stretch from the cool Sonoma Coast to the verdant valleys of Monterey and the ocean-influenced region of San Luis Obispo.
