2018 ORINDA HAYES, SAUVIGNON BLANC, CENTRAL COAST, CALIFORNIA

Using traditional techniques to create wine filled with finesse and a sense of place, the wines from Orinda Hayes are nothing short of perfect. The fruit used to create this Barrel Select Pinot Noir was hand-harvested during cool early morning hours. An optical sorter was used in an effort to eliminate less than perfect berries, resulting in highly concentrated flavors. A classical expression of the elegance of California Central Coast Pinot Noir, this wine is full-bodied, featuring flavors of bright red and blue fruit and aromas of sweet florals. A perfect sipper to share with friends on a cool fall night.
