Los Primeros - meaning "the first" - honors the early winegrowing pioneers in California who planted vines along the coast. Today, those same areas, inland from the Pacific Ocean, produce California's most sought after Pinot Noir grapes. The vineyards stretch from the cool Sonoma Coast to the verdant valleys of Monterey and the ocean-influenced region of San Luis Obispo.
A wild bouquet of raspberry, chicory and tuberose plays against earthier notes of juniper berry and forest floor. With time in glass, warm sandalwood emerges. A soft entry transitions quickly to red plum and bright, fruity acidity. Supple tannins frame late-palate notes of oak spice, bark and tamari. An aromatically layered and inviting Pinot Noir; nuanced and satisfying.
