Velvet Bee’s 2013 Bentrock Vineyard Pinot Noir is from the highly regarded Sta. Rita Hills appellation on California’s Central Coast. This cool-climate region is home to some fantastic vineyards that produce exceptional, world-class Pinot Noir. Deep garnet in color, the Velvet Bee Pinot Noir offers dense aromas of strawberry, blackberry, vanilla and spice for an alluringly rich experience. Notes of clove, allspice and gingerbread arise on the palate, with background tones of mulberry and elderberry jam that provide an elegant and intriguing mix of flavors. Soft tannins and spice carry through on the long, lingering finish.
