General Information
The fresh breeze and mist from the Pacific, located just 10 kilometers away, provide the Doña Margarita vineyard with the ideal climatic conditions for cultivating pinot noir, which forms the base of Mas Cavalls Pinot Noir 2018, an aromatic single-varietal wine from Marimar Estate Vineyards & Winery that surprises with its complexity and fleshy palate.
From the Californian region of Sonoma Coast, this red wine is rounded, balanced, and features firm tannins, having undergone 10 months of aging in high-quality oak barrels from the coopers Remond, from the Bertranges forest, and Marchive and Rousseau from central France. Its organoleptic qualities make Mas Cavalls Pinot Noir 2018 an excellent choice to pair with roasted chicken or duck, fish like salmon or tuna, and even spicy and flavorful dishes.
Tasting notes
In the olfactory phase, pleasant aromas of raspberry jam, blueberries, and cassis dominate, over a background of undergrowth with hints of clove and anise.
Round and complex on the palate. Balanced with firm tannins that promise a long life.
