Estancia relies on the benefits of boutique-style winemaking techniques, including whole-cluster fermentation, gentle punch downs, and basket pressing. Our Monterey-based winery uses gentle gravity flow systems to minimize aggressive tannins and bitterness. It is this crafting of wines—from grapes to bottle—that results in our consistent and superior wine quality.
Tasting Notes
Monterey Bay’s cool ocean breezes create perfect growing conditions for Pinot Noir in Monterey County. One sip of this delicate, silky wine, and you’re sure to fall in love.
Ruby red color. Appealing floral notes of violet and lavender, intertwined with fruit aromas of cherry and plum on the nose. Concentrated flavors of black cherry, brown sugar, plum, and leathery notes with a silky mid-palate and a rustic toasty finish.
Serving Suggestion
Pair with smoked salmon, asparagus, pork, poultry, or steak.
