Sycamore Lane Pinot Noir
California Pinot Noir built for the dinner table, not the cellar.
The story behind Sycamore Lane
Sycamore Lane comes out of Trinchero Family Estates, the Napa Valley group that also gave the country Sutter Home. The Pinot Noir is 100% Pinot Noir fruit drawn from California's multi regional appellations, then softened with both French and American oak for body and a light toasty edge. Alcohol lands at 13.0% to 13.2%, and the wine is finished to drink on release, not to sit.
Here is the part most shoppers never hear. Sycamore Lane was built as an on premise house wine for restaurants, bars and caterers, priced so retail comparison would not undercut a dining room. That is why it turns up in select value retailers and delivery platforms rather than every shelf. We have poured and sold this style of California Pinot for three decades on Jericho Turnpike, and it does exactly the job it was made for.
