Schug Pinot Noir 2019 Review
Cooled by the breezes coming off the San Pablo Bay, Pinots in this region achieve great acidity while still showing depth. This wine has just that. It has a nice bright and juicy nose of classic cherries, cola, and some vanilla. The acidity on the palate is puckering which is good. It cuts through the fruit depth making for a very Carneros Pinot. Good stuff.
