The Heintz Estate Pinot Noir grows at the lowest elevation of Heintz Ranch. The two acres of Swan clones thrive in the cool temperatures and also receive special attention and manicuring for low yields. The 2012 Estate Pinot Noir brings pretty aromas of cranberry and wild berries followed by white pepper, sweet spices and dried floral. This possesses a beautiful seamless structure and wonderful balance, ending with a gorgeous juicy finish that keeps pulling you back for more. This is a flat out delicious wine that is ready to drink upon release. (Best 2014-2021) - April, 2014 (JD)
