Stirm Gularte Vineyard Pinot Noir 2023

100% Pinot Noir from Gularte Vineyard, at the north end of the Salinas Valley on River Road — the western benchlands of "the salad bowl of the world," just outside Santa Lucia Highlands. A cool, mild site of foggy mornings and windy afternoons, planted east-facing to dodge the harshest California sun. Hand-picked, partial whole-cluster, aged in neutral old barriques, bottled unfined and unfiltered. Bright, low-intervention, savory-red-fruited Monterey Pinot Noir.
