Black Kite Kite's Rest Pinot Noir 2008
#BLA08PN3 | 750mL
As one of the best boutique wineries in Anderson Valley, this '08 offering is Black Kite's proprietary Pinot and drinks the way a Pinot should - deep red cherry enhanced by a little spice on the finish. It's focused, yet maintains balance. Winemaker Jeff Gaffner is no new name to the world of good wine. His own label Saxon Brown was how we first learned about his other winemaking efforts. And we're glad we did because this is a Pinot you'll want to try. - Kerrin Laz, Wine Director
