Chamisal San Luis Obispo Pinot Noir 750ml

Appearance: Light Ruby. This wine is expressive on the nose with vibrant notes of cherry, raspberry, and cinnamon. On the palate, the wine is bright and juicy with light tannins and a fresh finish. We combined hand-picked fruit with grapes that were harvested using the very latest machinery and technology. The fruit was handled with care to ensure that we ended up with whole berries and minimal oxidation in preparation for carbonic maceration. During carbonic maceration, fermentation occurs in the absence of oxygen within each individual berry and at cooler temperatures. The process results in wines with exuberant aromatics and a vibrant fruit profile. The wine is then aged in stainless steel and neutral oak barrels to preserve the wine’s fresh and fruit-forward style. Finally, the wine undergoes partial malolactic fermentation to balance the wine.
