Arroyo Seco, California
This palate-pleasing Pinot Noir announces Arroyo Seco’s arrival
ABOUT THIS WINE:
Coqueverie
Pinot Noir
It might be known for its cool-climate winemaking, but Arroyo Seco is fast-becoming known as one of the hottest Pinot regions in the county. Just a stone’s throw away from the Pacific and with a light afternoon breeze, the conditions are perfect for a light, fruity Pinot Noir. The gravel soils soak up the heat during the day and release it when the temperature drops to make for excellent ripening conditions. On the nose, you’ll experience a fragrant burst of cranberry, strawberry, and pomegranate combined with notes of graphite, rose, and vanilla. Serve during a cool evening out on the porch with grilled salmon and great company.

WINE REGION:
Arroyo Seco
Lying in the middle of the Salinas Valley, the under-appreciated Arroyo Seco AVA is a beacon of cool-climate winemaking in Monterey County. Its vineyards—especially those to the east—are buffeted for much of the day by cold Pacific winds and shrouded by fog. This combines to give Arroyo Seco an extremely long growing season. Soils throughout the AVA are stony, and these stones absorb sunlight to provide additional heat to the vines. While winemakers face a challenging growing environment, the effort is worth it, as the area produces superbly balanced Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Sauvignon Blanc and Riesling; intriguing Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon perform well in the western part of the AVA.
