ROAR makes some of the best and hardest to get new Pinot Noirs in California.  Get the new release BEFORE the ratings come out!previous vintage 91 Points Robert Parker: "The Pinot Noir Santa Lucia Highlands possesses ripe black raspberry and blackberry notes intermixed with subtle smoke, camphor, and truffle characteristics. Expansive and multidimensional with silky tannins as well as a seductive mouthfeel and texture, it should be consumed over the next 3-4 years. This superb Pinot Noir producer has turned out three compelling efforts from this fickle varietal."Roar is owned by Gary & Rosella Franscioni, who planted and own the famed Rosella's Vineyard, Gary's Vineyard and Pisoni Vineyard in California's Central Coast.

The highlight of this wine is the silky smooth mouthfeel. The complexity and depth of the fruit adds to the allure. Great stuff.
