Detailed Description
Deep purple garnet in color with lavish aromas of warm blackberry pie, raspberry, licorice, and white pepper. Bold and sophisticated on the palate with flavors of dry cherry, crushed lavender, and chocolate covered blueberries. The texture is rich and velvety which leads to a long, structured finish.
Reviews:

Wine Enthusiast: This is a very bold style of Pinot Noir, so much that it’s not very reflective of the grape but would work well paired with a juicy grilled steak. Concentrated aromas of blackberry, maple syrup and hot pancakes lead into a viscous, thick palate of berry jam, clove and cardamom flavors.

Producer Information
Belle Glos is a producer of Pinot Noir particularly known for its single-vineyard releases from various sites along the California coast. It is named after Lorna Belle Glos Wagner, co-founder of Caymus Vineyards and grandmother of owner-winemaker Joe Wagner. The label produces a small collection of Pinot Noir wines, sourced from different coastal-influenced locations. The three stalwarts are the Dairyman, sourced from a former dairy farm on the southern alluvial plains of the Russian River Valley, while south of San Francisco, Clark & Telephone in the Santa Maria Valley is planted on its own roots to the rare Martini clone. Finally, Las Alturas (as the name suggests) is one of the highest vineyards in the Santa Lucia Highlands of Monterey County. In the winery, grapes are vinified by seperate plots from the vineyard to allow for precision winemaking. Cold-soaking is frequently employed to ensure the Pinot Noir wines have a full-spectrum of color and hue with French oak barrels sourced for the aging process.
