2018 | Au Bon Climat | Pinot Noir Knox Alexander

Pale garnet, the 2018 Pinot Noir Knox Alexander is very spicy on the nose with aromas of wild red and black berries, licorice, orange peel and leather plus notes of dried herbs. The light-bodied palate is delicately styled and gently rustic, with a spicy finish.

Producer Information

Au Bon Climat is a Californian estate with an international reputation for its Burgundian-styled Chardonnay and Pinot Noir wines made predominantly in Santa Barbara County. Owner-winemaker Jim Clendenen was one of the best-known figures in the American wine industry.The estate consists of the Le Bon Climat vineyard and plantings in the Bien Nacido Vineyard, both in Santa Maria Valley. However, Au Bon Climat also sources grapes from several other highly regarded vineyards, including Sanford & Benedict in Sta. Rita Hills, Los Alamos in Santa Barbara County, and Talley Vineyard in San Luis Obispo County.The portfolio is led by a range of single-vineyard Pinot Noir and Chardonnay wines, made from Au Bon Climat's various vineyards. This is underpinned by wines from the wider Santa Barbara County AVA, including a Pinot Gris – Pinot Blanc blend and the Hildegard cuvée which combines these two varieties with Aligoté.
