A classic, perfectly balanced, elegant edition from the Saveria Vineyard, which can rival any great California Pinot Noir! The nose starts off with beautiful berries and dark cherries with a hint of sandalwood and cinnamon. The fruit continues throughout the palate, picking up some plum and currant. The soft tannins carry on and linger along with hints of vanilla.
Our wines are named after courtroom jargon to honor Judge Marlo’s career in the judicial system. Our Pinot Noir from Saveria Vineyard is named Alternate Juror to acknowledge our Pinot Noir from another vineyard.
John Benedetti, he keeps getting better!
