Heintz Vineyard Pinot Noir Sonoma Coast 2012
A spectacular example of Pinot at a more than reasonable price. An explosive nose of cranberry, spice and vanilla burst from the glass. The sumptuous texture carries the cherry, dried cranberry, and baking spice along fine tannins to a finish accented with cedar and cola. Drinking beautifully now, it will cellar well for another 5 years if you can manage to leave it alone.
