This is the first vintage of La Grande Majesté Pinot Noir, a wine more than thirty years in the making. Since 1988, when the Indelicato family purchased the San Bernabe Vineyard. The present estate includes a mix of gently rolling hills, alluvial terraces, benchlands and foothills, which together offer a wide range of exposures and soil types. Today, the Indelicatos farm the top one-fourth of the vines in the San Bernabe AVA, all of which have been replanted to maximize quality rather than quantity, with a precise match of ideal variety, clone and rootstock to the micro-terroir of each vineyard block. La Grande Majesté is the first Pinot Noir from this vineyard to carry the San Bernabe appellation; its name is inspired by the magnificent sunset view over the vineyard from its highest point, which climbs the foothills of the Santa Lucia Range.
WINEMAKER'S TASTING NOTE
Dark ruby in the glass, the wine opens with aromas of dark cherries and cocoa and a hint of toasted nutmeg. Silky, smooth tannins and opulent black cherry and raspberry flavors define the palate. The long, lingering finish offers a suggestion of wild sage. Our Pinot Noir instills a lasting impression of rich layered flavors.
— James Ewart, Winemaker
