TALISMAN Adastra Pinot Noir Los Carneros Napa Valley 2016

Talisman Winery epitomizes a dedicated focus on Pinot Noir production, boasting over 25 years of experience crafting exceptional wines. With an annual production of fewer than 3000 cases, sourced exclusively from approximately 16 distinct single vineyards, their commitment to the varietal is unparalleled. Marta and Scott, the talented minds behind Talisman, consistently deliver outstanding wines, with Adastra Vineyard in Carneros emerging as a perennial favorite. While Talisman offers a diverse range of Pinot Noirs, from the bold and robust Sadie’s to the more classically Burgundian Weir, Adastra possesses an elusive allure that captivates with each vintage.

Characterized by its whimsical nature, Adastra tantalizes the palate with an ever-evolving complexity, inviting multiple contemplations with every sip. Unabashed in its expression, Adastra pairs exquisitely with steak, challenging the supremacy of Napa Cabernet Sauvignon, yet remains equally enjoyable in solitary appreciation.
