Wine One
St. Clement Vineyards
“Vintner’s Collection”
Pinot Noir, Santa Barbara County 2017
Aromas of raspberry jam with hints of green leaves followed by black cherry and dark spices.
The palate starts with black earth with slight black cherry. The earth is the prevailing flavor at this point. After the wine has been open for 25 minutes the black cherry moves to the forefront. The earthy flavors fall to the back but still harness in the fruit. Giving a balance to the wine at this time. After open for 1 hour, the wine becomes smoother on the palate, less green notes and earth. This will also result in this wine declining in flavor over the next hour. On the finish the earth is coming through, but still held in place with some black cherry.
