2018 Krutz Pinot Noir 'Soberanes Vineyard, Santa Lucia Highlands
Tasting Notes
The 2018 Soberanes Pinot Noir was fully desteemed before fermenting in a 50 hL French oak tank. It is medium full in body with notes of black cherry, raspberry, and violets with a savory component and an integrated oak influence. The wine has a rich and ripe tannin structure with good acidity that will age gracefully.Vineyard Notes
