2023 Héroe Pinot Noir

This lovely Pinot Noir wine features a strong perception of baked cherry, cranberry, and boysenberry pie. The earthy notes are brought forth with notes of cracked pepper, eucalyptus, and bay leaf. The mouthfeel features a medium-rich body on the palate, where floral lavender notes and pomegranates strengthen ripe cherry flavors. Ripe black cherry fruit married with rose petal aromas in the mid-palate. Then, the finish is accented by touches of violets and fresh-cut cedar wood. I love this wine's crisp mouthfeel ignited by prominent acidity, which makes it a perfect pairing with Chicken Marsala.
