Pure, glossy dark cherry and raspberry fruit drive this 2016 La Crema Shell Ridge Pinot Noir, cushioned by a velvety texture and generous baking spice richness. Notes of dried red berries and cocoa glide into a long, creamy finish, where a touch of earth and a faint citrus lift keep the wine lively and detailed. It feels both indulgent and well-poised, showing why this vintage is so highly regarded for this bottling.
