Alara Cellars, San Benito County (Central Coast, California) Pinot Noir 2017

Sep 10, 2019

By Robert Whitley

 California’s Central Coast is home to some of the state’s finest Pinot Noir vineyards, so this beauty from the relatively obscure Alara Cellars isn’t a complete surprise.  Showing notes of cherry and spice, with supple tannins and a long finish, it’s definitely a Pinot Noir worth seeking out.
