Belle Glos Pinot Noir Balade Arroyo Seco 2022

Dark violet in color with aromas of dark fruit and toasted brioche with a hint of baking spice. Bold and sophisticated on the palate with blackberry, boysenberry, French toast, black pepper, and a trace of cinnamon. This wine is beguiled with complexity and a light refreshing approach, yet not overly bold on the palate. 

This will wow those who prefer Pinot Noir in a massive, powerful style, though probably disappoint those seeking ethereal elegance. Heavy aromas of cherry, charred cola and clove on the nose lead into a palate of cherry cordial and cardamom cookie flavors that are wrapped in creamy tannins.
