VISIT MIAMI'S BEST WINE BAR

2015 BREWER CLIFTON, MACHADO, PINOT NOIR, STA RITA HILLS, CALIFORNIA

This is Greg Brewer’s appellation blend rather than his single-vineyard expressions, but it’s still incredibly dynamic and delicious. A fresh and fruity strawberry-slushie aroma is met with notes of crushed slate and star anise-spiced cookies on the nose. The palate is bright in flavors of slightly tart cherries and ripe cranberries, but then come juniper and pine needle on the midpalate. Acidity pumps into the pomegranate and menthol finish.
