  Offers fresh, juicy, snappy raspberry and wild berry flavors, shaded by spice and wilted rose, ending with a delicate, detailed, minerally finish of understated elegance. Drink now through 2021.

  The 2012 Pinot Noirs display much less extraction, tannin and body than vintages from 10 or 12 years ago reveal. The 2012 Pinot Noir Kistler Vineyard, which comes primarily from the Calera clone, has oodles of strawberries and floral blueberries in a soft, round, medium-bodied style. Pure, pretty and elegant, this is a Pinot Noir to drink over the next 5-6 years.
