About Belle Glos 2016 Pinot Noir, Dairyman Vineyard, Russian River Valley

Belle Glos is a super premium Pinot Noir produced by none other than the Wagner family, owners of Caymus Vineyards. The striking red wax capsule is a statement to the exceptional character of these wines. The family has sought out prime vineyard property in the best Pinot Noir producing region in California and this one is their latest purchases. Although they've worked with this vineyard, located in the southern alluvial plains of the Russian River, and planted to vines in 2000 it was once a dairy cow pasture. The vineyard is near the ocean, which results in cooling fog coming through the Petaluma Gap both in the morning and evening, along with afternoon breezes, helping to soften the effects of the warm sun. In 2016 June was seasonally warm, cold weather predominated in July and August, causing the light crop to ripen more slowly than normal. This gentle ripening resulted in fruit with very good color and ideal acids. Harvest began two weeks earlier than normal. Only free run juice was fermented and then aged 9 months in 60% new French oak. It shows bright cherry, cranberry, brown sugar and spice on the nose. On the palate the bright cherry opens up to a velvety richness and vibrant acidity enlivening the cherry, berry, cola, cranberry and brown spice flavors. The lengthy finish will leave you wanting more. On Sale!!
