2011 Paul Lato 'Duende Gold' Coast Vineyard Pinot Noir Santa Maria Valley

The Paul Lato 'Duende Gold' Coast Vineyard Pinot Noir from the Santa Maria Valley showcases a complex flavor profile with notes of ripe cherry, plum, and hints of earthiness, complemented by subtle spice and oak nuances. The Santa Maria Valley, influenced by coastal winds, fosters a unique terroir that makes it a distinctive representation of California Pinot Noir. With age the wine starts to display more earthy, savory characteristics.

This Pinot Noir pairs well with a variety of dishes, including roasted poultry, grilled salmon, and mushroom risotto.
