2009 Toretti Santa Maria Valley Pinot Noir

14.7% alc., $44. · Light reddish-purple color in the glass. Attractive aromas of ripe cherries, strawberries, sandalwood and balsam. Delicious core of exotically flavored red cherries and berries with a slight confected tone. Light in weight and exuding plenty of finesse and charm, this wine is drinking beautifully now. Very good.
