Santa Maria Pinot Noir
Santa Maria Pinot Noir Bulldog (6 Pack) 2006 Price: $540.00 for a 6 pack ($90 per bottle) What to Give the Person Who has Everything Are you wondering what to give the person who has everything? Do you want to express to someone how much they mean to you? The Santa Maria Pinot Noir is the wine to select when you are at a loss. The Pinot Noir selections of Santa Maria give you a hint of earthiness, spice and the unmistakable fragrance of dark, lush cherries. Unlike the Burgundy Region's refined elegance, the pinot noir grown in Santa Maria are a powerful, heady combination of flavors and fruits including smoked meats, earth, cola nut and dark cherries. A large part of this is the consequence of the ideal conditions in which the fruits are grown. On the other hand, it cannot be denied that the Santa Maria Valley winemakers also greatly contribute to the bold flavors these wines are made with. Essentially, many edgier, younger winemakers who make it a point to try brand new wine innovations are in the Santa Maria Valley. For this reason, you get a style of wine that is created for a brand new generation who loves classic Pinot Noir that excites the palate. Needless to say, the wine region of Santa Maria Valley possesses ideal temperature and soil conditions for growing the specific grape needed for Pinot Noir. An area where the sea meets the mountains and where grapes are covered by fog, the temperature sometimes fluctuates as much as forty degrees in one day. This results in the Pinot Noir grape having the ability to mature on its own vine approximately twenty percent longer than other grapes in other regions. This is what distinguishes this grape from every other type of grape. The additional vine-growing time lets the flavor of each grape reach a spectacular seasoned flavor that is almost never found anywhere else. An art that is almost synonymous with tradition, more and more winemakers are putting tradition on the sidelines in favor of producing brand new wine flavors with the same spectacular Pinot Noir grape.
