You may know La Crema, but did you know that they produce a line of very small production wines in their Appellation Series? Forget everything that you know about the winery’s mainstream offerings. Today’s La Crema 2012 Appellation Series Russian River Valley Pinot Noir is a stunning, high-quality delight that will knock your socks off.

This delightfully delicious Pinot is rich enough to be paired with everything from strong cheeses to grilled red meats. One member of our tasting panel will be enjoying his bottles with a rare, unseasoned filet mignon. Whatever you pair this food-fantastic wine with, we know that your meal will be magically enhanced.

Deep and concentrated red fruit makes a big splash on the palate. On the nose, the wine presents a great rush of red cherry. The wine finishes long, with red fruit and subtle spice that sustain the longest.

Enjoy this wine with our boldest recommendation.
