Aromas of red and dark fruits, red cherries and potpourri followed by ground cloves, roasted coffee beans, cedar and underlying dried orange peel. Medium-bodied yet creamy texture with velvety tannins and crisp acidity. Zesty and flavorsome. Aged for 10 months in 35-36% new oak barrels - a mix of multiple barrels from 13 different coopers. Drink or hold.

Ruby-hued and highly aromatic with floral perfume, the 2021 Pinot Noir Sonoma Coast is ripe and pure with classic aromas of red raspberry, roses, and a bit of brambly forest herbs. Medium to full-bodied, this ripe, juicy red offers notes of mixed berries, forest herbs, and cinnamon and is an attractive and approachable wine to drink over the next several years. I like its purity, and it’s a really great value.
