Located near the Alpine Vineyard in the Santa Cruz Mountains AVA, the Horseshoe Vineyard was first planted in 2004 and totals 17.5 acres. The 2013 Horseshoe Vineyard Pinot Noir begins with and inviting aromatics of smoky elements combined with black and red fruits building in the glass. The terroir here is marvelous, as the salinity and earthy characteristics that really drive this wine. Wild blackberry pie, sea salt, red currant, and mesquite flavors all mingle together beautifully. This is tremendous, terroir-driven Syrah, that is drinking marvelously right now.
