Description

The Santa Cruz Mountains has been home to grapes since the 1850s, but has remained relatively unknown. With only 1,600 acres of vines, there’s not enough wine to go around. In recent years they have been getting critical acclaim. Clos de la Tech makes 5 different Pinots in their steep mountain vineyards & state-of-the-art winery. If you’re looking for pale & delicate, this isn’t it. Like Grand Crus of Burgundy, this has more structure than most, making it suitable for meat & aging.
