Vintage Notes
Showcasing the poise and purity that make the 1975 Pinot Noir plantings at Selleck Vineyard so special, this alluring Pinot Noir offers soaring aromas of ripe red cherry, raspberry and papaya. The bright red berry flavors are echoed on a beautifully acid-driven palate, with notions of sage and lychee emerging on the long, lavish finish.
