2014 Loring Wine Company Aubaine Vineyard San Luis Obispo County Pinot Noir

14.2% alc., pH 3.58, 250 cases, $50. Release February 2016. · Moderate reddish purple color in the glass. Very fruity nose featuring darker, very ripe raspberry and cherry aromas with a hint of rose petal and oak in the background. Quite silky in the mouth with middleweight flavors of purple berries framed by modest tannins. The acidity sticks out as a bit sharp, particularly on the citrus driven finish. Score: 89.
