Winemakers Tasting Notes: Left Coasts, dense and rich
in color, Calis Cuveé Pinot Noir has plentiful aromatics
including purple plum, blueberry, blackberry, white
pepper and crushed dried herbs. A juicy mid palate with
earthy, spicy and toasty flavors wrap up into a tight
mineral texture and refined tannins.
Food Pairing: Calis Cuvée is a versatile and exceedingly
food friendly. A perfect match for anything from the
grill, including salmon, pork chops or chicken. Great
with hamburgers. Also pairs beautifully with roast
chicken, root vegetables, or perfect on its own.
The flagship Pinot Noir from Left Coast Cellars. A true snapshot of our terroir and a
window to our estate, combining all the blocks and different clonal selections from our
vineyard. Named in honor of Cali, our owners daughter, the wine displays bright red
fruit flavors, and a freshness that can only be found in the Willamette Valley.
