Composed of fruit from Niner’s Jespersen Ranch property in Edna Valley, this Pinot Noir is fleshy and full without sacrificing food friendly acidity. Macerated cherry, raspberry and rhubarb aromas are complimented by notes of cardamom and mild pie spice, and they translate well to flavors on the palate with a rich feel and a nice earth and leaf finish that lingers long. This is a great value for the price.
