2007 Carmel Road Arroyo Seco Pinot Noir Winemaker's Notes "To capture the character of the Clark Ranch Vineyard we utilize a number of hands-on techniques including cold pre-soaks, native yeast fermentations, hand punchdowns, French oak aging, and no fining or filtration. Our 2007 vintage comes from a special, rocky, four-acre block at the heart of the ranch. Richly textured with raspberry preserve, blackberry, red plum, and hints of forest floor. Full-bodied, powerful and complex with soft, velvety tannins and exceptional length on the finish." - Ivan Giotenov, Winemaker

Acclaim Robert M. Parker Jr: "Obviously a cool-climate wine, with elegant strawberry and raspberry as well as hints of blueberry and underbrush notes, this Pinot is attractive, medium-bodied... Carmel Road has also produced two other super Pinot Noirs.
