Cakebread Cellars Two Creeks Vineyards Pinot Noir (2023)

Two Creeks Pinot Noir blends grapes from the Annahala and Apple Barn Estate vineyards in Mendocino County’s Anderson Valley, an appellation renowned for its superb Pinots. Proximity to the Pacific Ocean has a dramatic cooling effect that promotes slow, even ripening. Closer to the coast and sheltered by trees, Annahala is the cooler and foggier vineyard, while Apple Barn is more exposed and enjoys warmer afternoons; both sites share an overlapping mix of nine superior Pinot Noir clones. 

Aromas of fresh raspberries and delicate floral notes on the nose. On the palate, it is a medium-bodied wine offering delightful flavors of strawberries and black cherries. Hints of spice and sweet toasty oak enhance the bright berry finish. Its balanced acidity integrates smoothly with silky tannins, leaving a lingering, rounded sensation in the mouth.
