Ampelos Cellars Sta. Hills Pinot Noir Lambda Magnum Bottle
Full moon on a friday night. The drive-in with your favorite date, dark chocolate covered raisinets and sticky cherry cola. Morning's sunrise with sweet thick-sliced french toast, pepper-rubbed slab bacon and freshly ground espresso beans. All of your favorite faces and places fill the recesses of your mind as you relax under your favorite oak tree. You're home. Lambda is "the magnitude" of what we do - it is our "home" at Ampelos! It is the culmination of what we see when we look out at our vineyard. It's a dream that became reality and continues to unfold and teaches us with every season. 24 months in oak barrels Clones are: 115, 667, 777, 2A, 828, Pommard
