title: Riverbench 2013 Clone 115 Pinot Noir (Santa Maria Valley)
description: This clonal study by Clarissa Nagy shows lots of brown spice, pomegranate fruit and wet slate on the nose, which is shy at first until a deeper sniff reveals juiciness. The palate offers an herbal medley of oregano, thyme and marjoram, spicing up the cranberry fruit, graphite and cocoa shavings.
variety: Pinot Noir
designation: Clone 115
