MI SUENO

2013 PINOT NOIR

LOS CARNEROS

 

With an undeviating style that delights those lucky enough taste it, Mi Sueno’s Los Carneros Pinot is reliably long, round and deeply compelling.  After all, it was composed by Rolando Herrera, who gained valuable first-hand experience as Director of Winemaking for legendary winemaker Paul Hobbs.  He began his career in the 1980’s under the guidance of Warren Winiarski at Stag’s Leap Winery.  Now with more than 30 harvests under his belt, Rolando has applied all of the knowledge gained through the trials and tribulations during his impressive winemaking career and poured it into Mi Sueño, crafting a one of a kind, deeply captivating Carneros Pinot Noir.

 

Arising from the Tierra Blanca Vineyard located in the esteemed Carneros Appellation, this divine and wonderfully complete Pinot Noir spent 10 months in oak barrels before bottling.  Blossoming for over 3 years in the bottle, layers of fruit emerge in a tapestry woven with dried cherries, black tea, subtle sassafras and delicate floral notes.  If enjoying a high-level California Pinot Noir, without the premium price tag that normally comes with one sounds good to you, you’ll want to grab a case while supplies last.  If you choose to order on our website, you will need code sueno30 to unlock this dream discount.

Winery Notes: “Our Los Carneros Pinot Noir opens with inviting aromas of cherry, vanilla, tobacco, red guava, and pomegranate. Dark fruit  flavors of raspberry, cranberry, blackcurrant, and more cherry are joined by hints of pepper, spice and wet earth on the palate. Well-rounded, with great structure and balance of acidity and fruit, this is an elegant wine which can be enjoyed now and for years to come.”
