STIRM JOAQUINITE PINOT NOIR 750 ml

Description

Discover the allure of Stirm Joaquinite Pinot Noir, a red wine inspired by the elusive joaquinite gemstone hidden in the towering peaks of San Benito County's remote mountains. This rare crystal shares its domain with fellow treasures like benitoite and neptunite, evoking a sense of hidden wonders unearthed from rugged terrain. Much like those gems, this Pinot Noir emerges from an extraordinary place: the historic Gimelli Vineyard, also known as El Gabilan, nestled in the heart of Cienega Valley.

Here, in California's central coast landscape, the vineyard's two distinct blocks—planted back in 1997—thrive under unique conditions. Limestone-rich, alkaline soils infuse the grapes with a distinctive character, while the valley's dramatic temperature swings from sun-soaked days to chilly nights ensure balanced ripeness and vibrant freshness. Crafted entirely from these Pinot Noir vines, the wine captures the essence of its storied origins in every 750 ml bottle.

At 12.50% ABV, Stirm Joaquinite Pinot Noir offers a refined profile from this United States gem, perfect for those seeking something beyond the ordinary. Imagine savoring it alongside a quiet evening meal or sharing it with friends who appreciate the tale behind each pour—the gemstone legacy intertwined with Cienega Valley's limestone heritage. From San Benito County's mountainous mysteries to your glass, this Pinot Noir bridges rare natural phenomena with everyday indulgence.

Whether you're exploring California reds or hunting for that special varietal find, this wine stands out for its deep-rooted vineyard story and precise environmental harmony. Elevate your collection with a bottle that whispers of geological rarities and time-tested vines, all at an approachable price point ready for your next gathering.
