Belle Glos - Eulenloch Pinot Noir - Napa Valley
Description
Overview: While each vineyard location lies near the Pacific Ocean, the climate differences are significant, varying with the amount of fog, wind, sunlight, and soil type at each site. Each Vineyard Designate is crafted to distill the purest essence of the locale into elegant expressions of California Pinot Noir.
Owner/winemaker, Joe Wagner chose the name Belle Glos (pronounced “BELL GLOSS”) to honor his grandmother, Lorna Belle Glos Wagner. Lorna was a co-founder of Caymus Vineyards, an inspirational figure to Joseph and an avid lover of Pinot Noir.
Tasting Notes: Beautifully deep garnet in color. The nose presents aromas of rich dark cocoa nibs, dark stone fruits and luscious vanilla with an intriguing hint of baking spice. Rich and opulent, the palate offers bold dark fruits, such as tart cherry and ripe Mirabelle plum balanced with a whisper of white pepper and cacao. Bold and well-balanced with bright acidity and rich velvety tannins, don't pass up this beautiful Carneros Pinot!
Pairing: Chicken and turkey
