Bien Nacido Estate Succession 2021 Review
To state that the Bien Nacido vineyard, the most single-vineyard designated site in the world, is iconic would be an understatement. It's one of the oldest cool-climate vineyards in California known for making outstanding wines. This GSM blend from the Bien Nacido Estate has a meaty, earthy, peppery nose with the slightest hint of oak. The palate is epic with bright berry fruit, amazing spices like pepper and herbs, and great balance. It’s an amazing American wine.
