A wine that's brought up in 40% new oak and is from 60-70% estate fruit (it's all from the Santa Lucia Highlands), the 2014 Pinot Noir Twelve Clones is a charming and graceful Pinot Noir that has plenty of classic red and black fruits, spice and even a touch of pepper in its medium-bodied, ready to go style. It's well made, has plenty to like, and readers looking for a good value to drink over the coming coming 3-4 years could do a lot worse.
