Petito Split Rock Vineyard Pinot Noir – Splendid

By: Jon Thorsen Last Updated: December 10, 2016

2008-Petito-Split-Rock-Vineyard-Pinot-Noir
So fun to drink we had to rate it a 10.

Pinot Noir from Sonoma Coast, California.

This review brought to you by CorkExclusive where you can get the Petito Split Rock Vineyard Pinot Noir 2008 (with an SRP of $55) for just $19.99 plus FREE SHIPPING on any order! With only 150 cases produced this is a rather amazing deal especially considering the next cheapest internet retailer selling has it priced at $34.99 plus shipping (which was a whopping $17 for me)!

From the bottle:

“This 110 acre vineyard is one of the Sonoma Coast’s finest. It sits between 320 and 820 feet above sea level. It consistently produces high quality Pinot Noir, year after year. Spicy tones and red fruit are the result of this very uniquely made wine. This wine has great intensity and a long, lingering finish on the palate, along with a solid acid core that balances out the tannins.

14.1% Alcohol”

The 2008 Petito Split Rock Vineyard Pinot Noir begins with a big, wonderfully complex and inviting aroma that features black cherry, strawberry, smoky spice, dried herbs, cola and more. The wine tastes luscious, smooth and silky and features lots of deep juicy fruit that is wonderfully balanced with oak overtones and a fresh, bright acidity. It ends with an oaky, juicy, smoky, mineral-tinged, dry finish that lingers for a very long time. A perfect 10!
