Cattleya 2022 Belly of the Whale Pinot Noir

Winery Notes:

Evocative of the cool, crisp air and bracing maritime winds of the Sonoma Coast, this gorgeous Pinot Noir possesses lifted aromas of crushed Bing cheny, cranberry, fresh sandalwood and a savory hint of Herbs de Provence, all contained within a crystalline medium ruby hue. On the palate, flavors are bright, fresh and focused in the form of raspberries and strawberries, while complexity is enhanced through hints of fresh oak and cedar wood. Enticing and flashy in its youth with vibrant acidity and noticeable structure, this wine carries a promise for great aging potential.
