Woodruff Vineyard

2009 Santa Cruz Mountains Pinot Noir

The Wind Gap Woodruff Vineyard 2009 Pinot Noir from the Santa Cruz Mountains is a stunning expression of this celebrated varietal. This red wine showcases a medium body that beautifully balances richness and elegance, offering a delightful mouthfeel. The acidity is vibrant and refreshing, providing a lively backbone that enhances its overall complexity. Pronounced fruit intensity shines through with alluring notes of cherry and raspberry, complemented by subtle earthy undertones. Tannins are soft and well-integrated, adding structure without overpowering the expressive fruit. This wine is decidedly dry, making it an excellent companion for various culinary delights, from grilled salmon to mushroom risotto. With its harmonious profile and refined character, this Pinot Noir is a true testament to the exceptional terroir of the Santa Cruz Mountains.
