2013 Cerise Vineyard Pinot Noir

Knez's 2013 Pinot Noir Cerise Vineyard is bright, focused and utterly compelling. Firm yet well integrated tannins give the 2013 much of its energy and tension. The style is crystalline and pure. The 2013 was done with two-thirds whole clusters, but they are impeccably balanced. In 2013, the Cerise captures the essence of winemaker Anthony Filiberti's vision. The clonal mix of Pommard, David Bruce and Martini also add to the wine's considerable pedigree. This is a great example of Anderson Valley Pinot Noir.
