Occasional Wine Note: Bright red fruits accented by great acidity, a fair bit of minerality, great earthy notes, and hints of spice. This is a great representation of the lighter Pinots you'll find on the Sonoma Coast. Make no mistake, light does not mean weak. All of the aromas and the flavors here coalesce methodically in layers of complexity. This is a wonderful wine.

A fresh yet structured pinot with dried strawberry, orange peel and light caramel with dried stems. Medium body, flavorful, firm and bright at the end. Savory.

Delicious, fresh, and savoury, this juicy Pinot Noir from the Sonoma Coast has violet and smoky flint aromatics buoyed by fresh red berries and a kiss of fresh mint. The palate is reflective, with flinty minerality coming to the fore. Pine sap, notes of fresh evergreen and lovely red fruits, clove and white peppery spice to finish.
