Description
Red Wine by Alfaro Family from Santa Cruz Mountains, California. Alfaro Trout Gulch Vineyard Pinot Noir is ruby in color with floral aromas and flavors of cherries, raspberries, and strawberries. It has a silky texture with mild tannins and bright acidity. A most versatile wine, it pairs well with salmon, chicken, game birds, most meats, and mushroom dishes. Established in 1980, this 16-acre dry-farmed vineyard is nestled in the Santa Cruz Mountains near the coastal town of Aptos. Twelve acres are planted to the Wente clone of Chardonnay and four acres are planted to the Mt. Eden, Pommard and Martini clones of Pinot Noir. Its proximity to the sea (less than 4 miles inland) assures the grapes receive the cooling influence of the Monterey Bay, which is so desirable when crafting this premium wine.
