Monterey
Country excels at Pinot Noir. This fact is indisputable. Exactly what type of
Pinot you prefer is another matter. And that’s because there are more clones of
Pinot Noir than of any other wine grape variety, and, not surprisingly, most
are from France. At present nearly 100 Pinot Noir clones are registered in
California. Wrath has chosen wisely. This bottling of half Swan clone and half
clone 828, results in bright expressive notes of black cherry, blueberry,
boysenberry, with back notes of rose water, pomegranate, cola and Bing cherry
compote. It is the Swan that provides the floral component, which is one of the
reasons Swan can be so compelling as it is here, offering a richness in the mid
palate. They used French oak - 40% of that was new – and the wine was aged for
11 months, then bottle aged another year. Truly an astounding price for a wine
of this quality, I highly recommend this. Just 500 cases were produced.
