title: McIntyre Vineyards 2013 Estate Pinot Noir (Santa Lucia Highlands)
description: Plump cranberries, anise, charred cinnamon and a touch of a forest floor character hit the nose on this bottling from a longtime regional farming family. It's light but bright on the palate, with Earl Grey tea, chaparral scrub and citrus rind decorating an elegant pomegranate fruit structure.
variety: Pinot Noir
designation: Estate
