Landmark Vineyards "Overlook" Pinot Noir 2021 Sonoma - California

Medium purple/ruby color with attractive aromas of strawberry compote, red cherry and plum with toasted oak, vanilla and cinnamon spice, leather, red licorice, a little camphor with subtle purple floral notes. On the palate the wine is moderate to not quite full-bodied with ripe fruit of red berry, cherry and plum with vanilla, cinnamon and toasted oak leading into a mid-palate that features leather, a touch of dried herbs, camphor with underlying earthy notes. The finish is moderately long and fresh with lingering fruit, barrel spice and perfectly balanced tannins.

The 2021 Overlook Pinot Noir is a perfect mix of ripe fruit, savory elements and spice matched with freshness and texture that show its cooler climate California roots. It’s a versatile food pairing wine that pairs equally well with a rotisserie roasted chicken with garlic and herbs as it does with a hearty lasagna.
