Belle Glos Balade Pinot Noir 2022

Tasting Notes

The name “Balade” (French for wandering) is fitting for a wine which will be derived from a different, single vineyard location with each vintage. The 2020 version of this wine has been sourced from the Santa Rita Hills AVA.

Dark magenta in color with aromas of wild raspberry, bramble, cocoa nibs and a trace of white pepper. Bold and unctuous on the palate with vine fresh blackberry, dark chocolate, ripe strawberry, and a hint of toasted almond. This wine is beguiled with complexity and a light refreshing approach, yet not overly bold on the palate.
