Devil’s Gulch is one of Dutton-Goldfield’s most popular vineyard locations; the vineyard also produces an excellent Chardonnay. Its Pinot Noir has still unevolved aromas, with pronounced tart red cherry flavors. It has high acidity with substantial tannins, a reflection of its very cool Marin County location. Devil’s Gulch’s Pinot Noir is fairly light-bodied, and lovely to drink now — an apéritif-style wine. 13.8% Alcohol; 455 cases produced.
