Krutz Soberanes VIneyard Pinot Noir SLH 2022 South Africa

Krutz Soberanes VIneyard Pinot Noir SLH 2022 South AfricaThe 2022 Soberanes Pinot Noir is a beautiful representative of one of the premier vineyards in the Santa Lucia Highlands. It is velvety smooth in texture with a nose and palate of cherry cola and red rose petals with an underlying French oak influence from the barrel aging. Rich and inviting, the wine is solid through the finish. Winery Website
