The Acacia Carneros Pinot Noir opens beautifully offering layers of red-fruit aromas; Bing cherry, cranberry and sun-ripened raspberry. The aromas ring true on the silky textured palate where the juicy fruit core intermingles with baking spice, black tea and wet stone minerality. The wine offers a fine balance with perfectly ripened Pinot Noir fruit and bright ‘Los Carneros’ acidity, underpinned by the carefully selected oak barrel regiment. This is a refined and elegant style of Pinot Noir offering a graceful and long-lasting finish.
100% Pinot Noir barrel aged for 7 months 80% French oak, 20% Hungarian oak (20% new barrels).
Established in 1979, Acacia’s pioneering founders recognized the cool, windswept region of Carneros to be ideal for growing Chardonnay and Pinot Noir long before others. With its opulent Bing cherry, Burgundy plum, rose and mineral expression, our Pinot Noir sets the standard in the Carneros region. Silky tannins structure the wine’s harmonious flavors, while oak spices persist through the finish.
