title: Au Contraire 2012 Pinot Noir (Sonoma Coast)
description: Light and spicy, this hails from cool-climate sites. It is exhilarating in cinnamon and clove, with a structured core of wild strawberry and a finish of fennel. The aromas of violet that waft forward on the nose are incredibly inviting, as is the wine's silky texture.
variety: Pinot Noir
