Calera, which is named for an on-site lime kiln, is notable for its limestone-rich soils, a rarity in California. Pinot Noir is the key grape variety here, making several single-vineyard wines.Winemaker Josh Jensen trained in Burgundy, working a harvest at Domaine de la Romanée-Conti and later interning at Domaine Dujac. It was there that he learned that Pinot Noir and Chardonnay thrive on limestone soils, so upon returning to the US, he went in search for that terroir.In 1974, he purchased land that was once a limestone quarry on Mt Harlan, and planted 10 hectares (24 acres) of Pinot Noir in 1975. The first vintage from the vineyard was in 1978, and since then the estate has been expanded to include plantings of Chardonnay, Viognier and Aligoté.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2022-12-21T11:24:12-05:00","created_at":"2022-12-19T08:00:49-05:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_United States","MK1912","Other_Wine","Producer_Calera","Region_Central Coast","Source_Bestofwines1222","Type_Red Wine","Varietal_Pinot Noir"],"price":19899,"price_min":19899,"price_max":19899,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":42635121524874,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2017 | Calera | Pinot Noir Mills Vineyard","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":19899,"weight":12247,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/2395\/7103\/products\/39_fb9d1ecb-272d-4228-a08c-0bb904ce0095.png?v=1671454898"],"featured_image":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/2395\/7103\/products\/39_fb9d1ecb-272d-4228-a08c-0bb904ce0095.png?v=1671454898","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2017 | Calera | Pinot Noir Mills Vineyard at CaskCartel.com","id":23802926923914,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.636,"height":852,"width":542,"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/2395\/7103\/products\/39_fb9d1ecb-272d-4228-a08c-0bb904ce0095.png?v=1671454898"},"aspect_ratio":0.636,"height":852,"media_type":"image","src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/2395\/7103\/products\/39_fb9d1ecb-272d-4228-a08c-0bb904ce0095.png?v=1671454898","width":542}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 2017 | Calera | Pinot Noir Mills Vineyard\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePale to medium ruby, the 2017 Pinot Noir Mills Vineyard, aged 17 months in 30% new French oak, has a floral-laced nose of cranberries, fresh raspberries, orange peel, tea leaves, potpourri and saline with an earthy undercurrent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrder from the Largest \u0026amp; Most Trusted Premium Spirits Marketplace! \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatured in\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eROLLING STONE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMEN'S JOURNAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUS WEEKLY\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOTICE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Many other small liquor store sites may end up cancelling your order due to the high demand, unavailability or inaccurate inventory counts.  We have partnerships consisting of a large network of licensed retailers from within the United States, Europe and across the world ensuring orders are fulfilled.   \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eProducer:\u003c\/b\u003e Calera\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRatings: \u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003eWS\u003c\/span\u003e | 97\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cb\u003eVintage: \u003c\/b\u003e2017\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 750ml\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVarietal:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Pinot Noir\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry\/Region: \u003c\/strong\u003eUnited States, Central Coast\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDetailed Description\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePale to medium ruby, the 2017 Pinot Noir Mills Vineyard, aged 17 months in 30% new French oak, has a floral-laced nose of cranberries, fresh raspberries, orange peel, tea leaves, potpourri and saline with an earthy undercurrent.
