2013 Gehricke Los Carneros Pinot Noir

14.0% alc., 1,600 cases, RS 2.5 g/L, $40. Aged 9 months in French oak barrels. · Moderately dark reddish purple color in the glass. Toasty oak enhances the aromas of cherry, raspberry, spice and grilled beef. Bright and very sleek, with modest tannins and juicy acidity, featuring aromas of oak-kissed red stone fruits and berries. A polished, well-crafted wine with a pleasant, but modest finish. Score: 89. Reviewed April 20, 2015
