Red Wine by Riverbench from Santa Maria Valley, California. This Pinot Noir has always been a way to really showcase Riverbench Vineyard. Each year, tjey carefully select the clones and lots that will make up this wine so that it's the best qualities of all different parts of the property. The 2013 Harvest was fast and furious, with everything coming into the winery in about ten days from start to finish. But they didn't hurry this wine along; it received plenty of time in barrel to develop amazing complexity and deliciousness. The palate boasts juicy red fruit flavors, and a hint of our signature Riverbench smoke and clove. Try it with saucy barbecue or wild mushroom anything.
