Cuvaison’s Carneros Pinot Noir comes from the winery's 400-acre estate in the southern part of Napa Valley. This cool climate vineyard allows near perfect conditions year after year to produce world class Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Merlot and Syrah. Controlling all farming aspects within their own vineyard gives Cuvaison an advantage in producing the best quality fruit therefore minimizing over manipulation at the winery. Winemaker Steven Rogstad sums it up best, “My style and philosophy are based on expressing the unique character of our estate grapes and doing as little as possible to them. When one has such wonderful fruit to work with, that should be one’s emphasis.” Cuvaison's 2007 Pinot Noir is a very lush and seductive style of Pinot, brimming with vibrant fruit and backed by a toasty, velvety tannin on the finish.

Color: Warm tones of red currant
Aroma: Cherries, red fruits, wild strawberries and cinnamon
Taste: Raspberry, strawberry, vanilla and a hint of cola

"From the Napa side of Carneros comes this dry, full-bodied Pinot Noir. From the dark color to the rich black cherry and currant flavors, it’s Grenache-like, and fully ready now. A tasty wine to drink with a good steak. — S.H. (8/1/2009)" -Rated 87, Wine Enthusiast
