Acacia is one of the wineries that helped write the book on Pinot Noir in California, planting vines in the Carneros district at the southern tip of the Napa Valley more than three decades ago. This historic property hasn’t lost its touch and the 2013 is all the evidence anyone might need. This is an intense, rich, juicy mouthful of Pinot that would be competitive with other California Pinots at twice the price. Platinum award winner at the 2015 Critics Challenge International Wine Competition.
