Hess Select Pinot Noir 2023 showcases the exceptional fruit from the renowned Santa Lucia Highlands in California's Central Coast. Sourced from the Sarmento Vineyard on the benchlands of the Gabilan Mountains in Monterey, this wine benefits from the Pacific breezes that cool the vineyards, allowing for extended ripening during a long, moderate growing season. The result is a captivating blend of earthy aromas with hints of white pepper, leading to vibrant flavors of sour bing cherry, rhubarb, and pomegranate.
