2012 Testarossa "Gary's Vineyard" Pinot Noir   

Medium dark red color.  Engaging nose of fruit and flowers in this refreshing Pinot Noir.  Lemon, pomegranate, currant, bing cherry are paired with hints of jasmine, orange blossoms, and violet.  After some aeration, this wine continues to gain complexity with notes of cloves and custard.  While it is difficult to stop smelling the hedonistic traits, when tasting, there is a distillation of citrus, pomegranate, and cherry characters.  This elegant offering from Garys’ Vineyard offers bright, focused qualities showing the mature age of the vines, while unraveling in the finish to be multi-dimensional and loaded with subtleties.  Drink now through 2020
