An exceptionally versatile wine, Sterling Vineyards Vintner's Collection California Pinot Noir Red Wine is packed with fresh red cherry flavors and accented by a touch of vanilla oak. This food-friendly and balanced wine pairs well with roasted chicken or the Thanksgiving feast. Sterling Vineyards was founded in 1964 by Oxford graduate and successful businessman Peter Newton. Newton was an early pioneer of crafting Bordeaux-inspired red wines in California and helped transform the Napa Valley region into the premier winemaking appellation we know today.
