2013 Apple Barn Pinot Noir, Anderson Valley
The 2013 Apple Barn Pinot Noir displays a dark, saturated color and beautifully ripe dark cherry, black raspberry, blueberry and plum compote aromas accented by a fragrant sandalwood spice tone. Remarkably deep, dense and concentrated on the palate, the wine’s lush black cherry, red berry and black plum flavors are framed by silky-smooth tannins, leading to a long, sumptuous finish. While this opulent Pinot Noir is delightful to drink now with chicken, pork, lamb and beef dishes, it will develop greater complexity with another 3-5 years of bottle age. From our Apple Barn Vineyard in the southern end of Mendocino County’s Anderson Valley, a small coastal appellation renowned for its world-class pinot noirs.
