The Giesen Single Vineyard Ridge Block Pinot Noir 2012 is a beautiful red wine, with aromas and flavors of succulent fruits. The nose shows dark currant fruits, bramble, anise, and warm spice. These intriguing flavors introduce a palate of heavy, ripe fruit and excellently integrated tannins. This red wine should be enjoyed with excellent company and a good meal. It is the perfect bottle of wine to serve at any occasion, whether informal or festive.

This wine would pair nicely with rich mushroom lasagna or herb-roasted chicken.
