Damian Rae Winery Launches 2007 Pinot Noir
First Pinot Noir Released by Award-Winning Boutique Winery
ST. HELENA, CA - (March 10, 2009) - Damian Rae Winery today announced the public release of its first Pinot Noir, the hand-crafted Damian Rae 2007 Pinot Noir from La Encantada Vineyard (Sta. Rita Hills). The new offering was produced in response to high consumer demand. "While we've become known for making award-winning Cabernet Sauvignons and Syrahs, our clientele has been asking us to expand our portfolio with a premium Pinot," said Damian Rae vice president Sharol Tarabini.
Perfectly balanced, the Damian Rae 2007 Pinot Noir is a complex, yet approachable wine with origins in one of the world's finest Pinot Noir vineyards. With an outstanding nose, this wine displays ripe strawberry and red cherry aromas, with good integration of oak. The finish is long and smooth. The Damian Rae 2007 Pinot Noir is ideally paired with chicken, grilled seafood, pork tenderloin, pasta alfredo, and soft-ripened cheeses including Brie and Camembert.
The inaugural Damian Rae 2007 Pinot Noir is value priced at $45 and can be ordered while supplies last at www.damianrae.com.
A Growing Family
The Damian Rae 2007 Pinot Noir is the fourth varietal to carry the Damian Rae label. Two other offerings, the award-winning 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon, and the widely-acclaimed 2006 Syrah are sold online and at select retailers. The highly-anticipated Damian Rae 2008 Sauvignon Blanc will be released on May 1st.
