Hailing from the Petaluma Gap, the 2019 Kendric Vineyards Pinot Noir is a testament to the terroir’s ability to produce uniquely expressive Pinot Noirs. This 93-point gem is a symphony of flavors, with bright red fruit notes of raspberry and cherry harmonizing beautifully with hints of earthy mushroom and sweet spice. The wine’s graceful, velvety texture and balanced acidity make it a joy to drink. This Pinot Noir is a perfect companion for a cozy evening in, ideally paired with a hearty mushroom risotto or a savory roast chicken. Despite its high-quality attributes and retail value of $38.00, it delivers well beyond its peers and is a truly great value find.
