Tasting Notes: 100% Pinot Noir. The wine opens with foraged fruits: raspberry, and blackberry with complements of cherry and earthy umami characters. Fermented in small open-top fermenters with varying small amounts of whole-cluster, the mouthfeel has a balanced palate of freshness, cradling tannin and well-placed weight. Red fruits on the palate play toward an uplifting, enjoyable finish. A great introduction to our Pinot Noir portfolio, this wine is delicious and a great companion for your favorite meals and festivities.

Reviews

The 2019 Pinot Noir Sonoma Coast should be a smoking value and would be a great introduction for readers looking to understand the style of the Pinot Noir here as well as the quality. Black cherries, redcurrants, smoked earth, and peppery herbs all make an appearance, and it's balanced, medium-bodied, and just impeccably put together. It will keep for 4-5 years, if not longer. ~93 Jeb Dunnuck

Broadly expansive with well-integrated tannin, this coastal appellation wine offers a wealth of dark fruit, black tea and earthiness. The oak is toasted and adds baking spice and a hint of richness, with fresh acidity brightening the palate throughout. ~92 Wine Enthusiast
