The Gallegos 2012 Pinot Noir was produced from the Boekenoogen Vineyard, nestled atop the foothills in the heart of the Santa Lucia Highlands of Monterey County. Deep red in color, the 2012 Pinot Noir opens with aromas of strawberry, rhubarb pie, cranberry and cherry. Rich and layered flavors of ripe red fruits are nicely balanced with the fresh acidity and velvety tannins. A lovely full-bodied wine with a smooth, silky finish.
