Beau Marchais 2021 Pinot Noir – Soberanes Vineyard Red Wine

Experience the Pinnacle of Santa Lucia Highlands: 2021 Soberanes Vineyard Pinot Noir

Crafted through the visionary collaboration of California’s Adam Lee and Rhône Valley’s Philippe Cambie, this limited-production 2021 Pinot Noir embodies coastal California excellence. Sourced from the acclaimed Soberanes Vineyard in Monterey’s Santa Lucia Highlands, our wine captures the cool climate’s signature intensity and balance.

Generous dark fruit flavors unfold alongside nuances of bitter chocolate, salted caramel, and polished oak. Sleek, velvety tannins and vibrant acidity provide a firm yet approachable structure, leading to an impressively long finish graced by vanilla and sweet tobacco notes.
