Siduri Pinot Noir La Encantada Vineyard Santa Rita Hills 2016 750 ML

Quite subtle at first on the nose, this bottling offers baked red-cherry aromas and a dusting of soil with some swirling. The palate blends dark red cherry with touches of sagebrush and wild thyme, lifted by a hint of white pepper.\n \n \n Siduri, named for the Babylonian goddess of wine, is the result of our founders, Adam Lee and Dianna Novy's, mutual love of Pinot Noir, and their dream that they could make great wines of their own. Buoyed by that dream, Adam and Dianna left their native Texas and moved to California's wine country. They spent years working at small, family-owned wineries and using any and all free time learning everything they could about growing grapes and making wine. In 1994, they released the inaugural vintage of Siduri to critical acclaim. Today, Siduri's breadth and depth of Pinot Noirs is truly unique. We specialize in cool-climate Pinot Noir, producing single-vineyard designate wines from over twenty exceptional vineyard sites stretching from California's Santa Barbara County to the Oregon's Willamette Valley. We believe that the best Pinot Noirs express their origins. Our goal is not to produce the world's best Pinot noir but rather to produce the very best Pinot Noir from a given site. But perhaps most importantly, we believe that wine should be a pleasure, that serious wine and serious fun aren't mutually exclusive. So in our drive to make great Pinot Noir, we ultimately hope for something relatively simple--good wine to be enjoyed with good friends, good family and good food.
