Wine Review: This dark red colored Pinot Noir from Cambria opens with an attractive blueberry, strawberry and whipped cream bouquet. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied, balanced and savory. The flavor profile is a strawberry and mild blackberry blend with notes of minerality, cola and oak. The finish is dry and its moderate tannins and acidity stick around for a while after the wine is gone. This Pinot would pair well with a pork tenderloin dish. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: The 2016 Julia's Vineyard Signature exhibits a dark purple color with aromas and flavors of blueberries, blackberries, spicy oak, and mocha. This wine has a firm, yet balanced tannin structure and the finish displays the dark berry fruit characters along with vanilla and sweet oak nuances. Pair with tomato tart tatin or a pork roast with cherry sauce.
