Leese-Fitch 2012 Pinot Noir is a medium body wine
that works well for nearly all occasions. Light aroma with ruby red color. It
is a dry and sweet taste with little acidity or tannin aftertaste that hangs
for about 8 seconds. It is easy to notice the dark cherries, plumb, and strawberries
within the wine. It is also possible to discern
just a touch of vanilla.
Pinot Noir is a difficult grape to grow and requires
special care. Grown in northern California’s cool coastal land the sweetness is
unmatched. It is a versatile wine that pairs well with most other foods ranging
from sauces to poultry. Most people consider it as a step up between white and
red wine.
According to the website the brand can be described
as, “The
wines of Leese-Fitch celebrate the restoration of the Leese-Fitch building
located in the Sonoma Square. Built in 1836, this historical landmark in Sonoma
Plaza was named after Jacob Leese and Henry Fitch, brothers-in-law to General
Mariano Vallejo, the founder of the town of Sonoma.” You may learn more about the company HERE.
This wine is a keeper.
