Fernando Candelario Russian River Valley Pinot Noir 2021
About the wine
Swoonworthy red from Sonoma's premier Pinot subregion
With mouthwatering flavors of black cherry, black plum and crushed red berries followed by a creamy dark chocolate finish, Fernando’s Pinot is ripe, round – and righteous!
With your support, Fernando harvested primo Pinot from one of Sonoma’s most revered subregions, the Russian River Valley – whose cool climate allows the grapes to ripen slowly and steadily to Pinot perfection.
Fernando’s Pinot is 'berry forward' and ‘plum’ ready to drink now – but it’s also ageworthy. Stock up and indulge in this Pinot pleasure now – and over the next 10 years.
The icing on the cake? – the beautiful label art by Ruben Briseno Reveles. Even the bottle is a showstopper!
