| A is for Alfaro. In this case it's also for ace, because finding this high-value wine feels a bit like having one up our sleeve. "A" blends fruit from three high-density, low-yielding hillside vineyards located just four miles from Monterey Bay: Alfaro Family Vineyard, Lindsay Paige Vineyard and Ryan Spencer Vineyard. The sites' various clonal selections, exposures and elevations create a pinot noir that is balanced and fresh. Notes of raspberry, vanilla and baking spice on the nose give way to a cornucopia of cherry flavors on the palate and the perfect tension between fruit and integrated tannins and acidity. |
