This is one of our favorite small-production Pinot discoveries this year! Red Car is a small winery sourcing from top Sonoma Coast vineyards that should be on everyone's short-list of wineries to watch. Only 585 cases produced. Get the new release before the ratings come out! previous vintage 94 Points Wine Spectator: "Focused on a core of black cherry and blackberry fruit that's medium- to full-bodied, complex and spicy. Smooth-textured, with a long finish. Drink now through 2014. "

Cool climate Pinot Noir, a blend from 7 different West Somoma Coast vineyards including Red Car Estate, Platt and Bohemian Station. 10% new and 90% neutral oak. Wild yeasts only. Very attractive nose unmistakably Pinot Noir. Ripe red fruit, very subtle spices, silky tannin and fresh balancing acidity. Medium-bodied with lots of finesse, not unlike Chambolle-Musigny. Delicious and good value. 2013 vintage. Abv. 13,3%.
