Meiomi Pinot Noir is a premium California red wine crafted from grapes carefully selected from three renowned coastal regions: Sonoma County, Monterey County, and Santa Barbara County. This wine presents a beautiful garnet hue with brilliant ruby red radiance reminiscent of a coastal sunset.

The wine opens with lifted fruit aromas of bright strawberry, fresh-picked raspberries, and jammy dark fruit, enhanced by notes of toasty oak, vanilla, and mocha. On the palate, expressive flavors of boysenberry, blackberry, dark cherry, and juicy strawberry create a rich and complex taste profile, complemented by touches of toasted mocha and vanilla spice.

The winemaking process includes a cold soak maceration before fermentation to extract deep color and flavor compounds, followed by fermentation using a combination of native and cultured yeast strains. The wine is then aged in a blend of new and used French oak barrels, with new oak imparting bold vanilla and toast flavors while used barrels soften the tannins and add subtle complexity. The result is a smooth, plush wine with well-balanced acidity and soft tannins.

This versatile Pinot Noir pairs beautifully with roasted chicken, salmon, lamb, and mushroom risotto. The wine has an alcohol content of approximately 13.7-14.5% ABV and contains approximately 120-130 calories per 5-ounce serving.
