Medium ruby-purple in color, the 2013 Loner Pinot Noir R13-C John Sebastiano Vineyard gives up notes of black cherries and raspberry tart over a black earth, Ceylon tea and Indian spices-scented core with a faint waft of dried flowers. Medium-bodied, the palate delivers a good core of expressive black and red fruits, support by velvety tannins and seamless freshness, finishing long and earthy.
