title: Foley 2012 Barrel Select Pinot Noir (Sta. Rita Hills)
description: Caper berry, turned earth, blistered cherry tomato and puttanesca sauce aromas lead the nose on this top-end Pinot from Bill Foley's eponymous winery. It's wildly flavorful on the palate, offering perfectly ripe red fruit alongside woody herbs of oregano, thyme and rosemary, then leading into darkly elegant elements of black licorice, cardamom and chai spices.
variety: Pinot Noir
designation: Barrel Select
