Santa Cruz Mountain Pinot Noir 2012 750ml willamettevalley The smooth blend of mangoThe 2012 Pinot Noir Santa Cruz Mountains Estates, is the most complete and balanced of the four wines I tasted from Clos de la Tech. Dark cherry, plum spice, menthol, licorice and violet notes abound. Pliant supple and intense, yet also nicely balanced, the SCM Estates makes for a terrific introduction to these racy, fruit forward Pinots. Specifically, there is a bit more freshness and less oak inflected heaviness than in the other wines in the range.
