2006 Costa De Oro Gold Coast Vineyard Santa Maria Valley Pinot Noir
14.5% alc., $25.
·
Moderately dark reddish-purple color. The nose offers darker stone fruits, spice, wet oak and pepper. Very fruity and very attractive. The wine has an alluring plush and creamy palate with rich dark fruits, soft tannins, and a tangy acidic edge. A solid effort that every pinotphile would find enticing.
