A WINE TO TRY

2010 Talbott Pinot Noir ‘Sleepy Hollow Vineyard’

Santa Lucia Highlands

$30 to $40

Opulent

Goes with: Roast duck, goulash, pot roast

This is an alluring Pinot Noir from Talbott Vineyards’ “Sleepy Hollow Vineyard” in the Santa Lucia Highlands. The fruit is dark and sweet, with a perfume of wild strawberries and black cherries. The 2010 Pinot has beautiful balance and texture. It’s a wonderful match with bold flavors — roast duck, pork vindaloo or Hungarian goulash.
