SIMON LEVI CELLARS PINOT NOIR

ABOUT THE WINE

We are quite pleased with this, our premier vintage from the lovely hillside “Maboroshi Vineyard”. This Pinot Noir exhibits complex violet and rose notes with ripe flavors of blueberries and dark cherries. Its elegant structure is typical of the sandy, gold-ridge soils found in the Russian River/Sonoma Coast region. Extended skin contact during a cold soak prior to fermentation accentuates the rich texture without extracting overwhelming tannins.


FOOD RECOMMENDATIONS

A wonderful wine to pair with anything from a dish of roasted portabella mushrooms, herbs and roasted chicken, smoked duck and braised onions or salmon lightly seasoned with teriyaki flair.
