The 2012 Pinot Noir Sierra Mar is a medium-bodied, beautifully rich effort that has an open, rounded and sweetly fruited profile, especially when compared to the firm and focused Rosella's. Sweet cherries, raspberries, flowers and hints of minerality all show nicely here, and it has superb overall balance, as well as ripe tannin. Showing the vintage's forward, supple nature, enjoy this beauty over the coming 3-5 years.
