Nose
This lush and silky Pinot Noir opens with notes of Rainier cherry and crème brûlée.
Palate
Flavors of cherry cola, crushed strawberries and a hint of pomegranate. The fruit core is balanced with good acidity leading to a fresh, bright finish.
Growing Conditions
We source the fruit for this wine from vineyards in the Sonoma Coast region of the county. Due to the proximity to San Pablo Bay and the Pacific Ocean, the Sonoma Coast area experiences many cool and foggy days during the summer months, resulting in small yields of flavorful fruit with balanced acidity. We add a touch of Syrah from our Certified Sustainable Wild Oak Estate Vineyard. The combination of fruit produces a wine with distinct varietal character and supple features and texture.
Bottling
Bottled February 2017.
Aging
14 months in 100% French oak.
