PHILOSOPHY
While Domaine Chandon is best known as one of America’s top
sparkling wine houses, we also produce limited quantities of still
wines from the traditional champagnes varieties. We have now
expanded our offerings to include premium wines from regions that
are well-known for producing excellent quality Pinot Noir grapes.
In addition to a Reserve Pinot Noir from select parcels from our
estate in Carneros, we now also offer a Reserve Pinot Noir from the
Russian River Valley and from Santa Rita Hills.
The Santa Rita Hills appellation in Santa Barbara County is one of
California's premier cool-climate viticultural regions. The rolling
hills run from east to west, which allows cool ocean breezes from
the nearby Pacific Ocean to enter the valley created by these
hills. This geographic feature combined with the rocky soil creates
a perfect setting for growing Pinot Noir grapes.
TASTING NOTES
This rich and expressive pinot noir is immediately defined by its
aromas of lavender and fresh ripe raspberries that mingle with
hints of crushed granite and sandalwood. Expansive flavors
including black cherry and pomegranate are a prelude to the silky
texture and quintessential flintiness on the finish that is common
from the Santa Rital Hills region. The medium body, balanced
acidity and well integrated tannins suggest that this wine could be
cellared for 5 to 7 years and yet will pari well now with a variety
of dishes.
FOOD & WINE PAIRING
Try this wine with roast pork loin with a fruit reduction sauce. It
would pair nicely with pheasant as well.
