title: J. Wilkes 2013 Pinot Noir (Sta. Rita Hills)
description: This is a solid Pinot Noir for just $30, with clove- and vanilla-laced cherry pie notes on the nose, evoking warm pastry crust. Deep pomegranate and blackberry flavors show on the palate, as does more baking spice, crushed slate and wet clay minerality.
variety: Pinot Noir
