Description

Capiaux Cellars' Pinot Noir 'Chimera' from Russian River Valley shows the region's talent for producing wines with both richness and finesse. The 2023 vintage carries dark red and purplish fruit forward alongside floral and spice notes, creating a wine that feels both immediate and layered.

On the palate, this is a juicy expression of Pinot Noir without heaviness. Rose petal and lavender thread through the dark fruit, with sweet spice accents and hints of blood orange and pomegranate adding brightness. The wine balances vibrancy with a composed, refined character that invites you to drink it now while it's in its element.

The 2023 Pinot Noir Chimera is a terrific introduction to this range. A burst of dark red/purplish fruit, rose petal, lavender, sweet spice, blood orange and pomegranate make a strong first impression. Juicy yet vibrant, the 2023 is all class.
