Layer Cake Pinot Noir - 2021 (750ml)

Sourcing

Our Pinot Noir is sourced 100% from California’s Central Coast appellation - specifically from 
Monterey and Santa Barbara vineyards. Being close to the coast our Pinot Noir grapes receive warm morning sun followed by cool Pacific Ocean winds. This means longer ripening and extended hang time on the vine, resulting in intense aromatics and a great balance of acidity. 

Winemaking Notes 

Our Pinot Noir is fermented gently at cool temperatures to preserve aromatics. The wine is gently pressed and aged in French oak barrels, some of which are partially new. The result is a rich, delicious wine that screams Pinot Noir and fits right into the Layer Cake Wines line up.

Expressive notes of raspberry, pomegranate, and cranberry are supported by dried tea leaf and tobacco on the nose. The palate is layered texturally and has rich, pronounced blackberries and ripe plum flavors. Soft, fine-grained tannins and smoky, dark chocolate linger through the finish. - layercakewines.com
