Pinot Noir 2004 - York Mountain Winery

$25.95 per bottle

This wine is driven with complex fruit flavors such as rich blueberry. Enhanced with wild berry and blueberry aromas and a dark, intense polished tannic structure. A perfect mate to grilled salmon and other light dishes.

Though located just seven miles from the Pacific Ocean, it is significantly cooler and wetter than neighboring Paso Robles. Vineyards in the appellation are situated at an average of 1,500 feet and benefit from steep slopes, long sunshine hours, and cool coastal breezes. The climate and soil conditions are so unique that the York Mountain viticulture appellation is one of the smallest recognized in the state of California. This unique combination of cool climate and low vigor hillside soils create wines that possess a perfumed elegance not found anywhere else on the central coast.

At the end of a sun-dappled roadway, nestled among old arching oaks, impressive madrones, and thick Spanish moss of the Coast Range, you’ll discover a central coast treasure called York Mountain Winery. In 1882, apple farmer Andrew York discovered his soil and climate were ideal for growing grapes – thus the venerable York Mountain Winery was born. Built of local stone, hand-formed brick fired on the premises, and timber from a Cayucos pier, York Mountain is the area’s oldest continuously operating winery.
