Description
The 2014 Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir was sourced from a number of ocean cooled vineyards, specifically chosen for the cooler temperatures they experience as a result of the Petaluma Wind Gap and the influence of San Pablo Bay. The vineyards used were Gap's Crown, Goldrock, Griffin's Lair, Kanzler, Klopp and Walala. The resulting wine will offer lifted floral aromatics with herbs, earth and wood notes anchoring the nose. You can expect this to be poised and fresh, in keeping with where it was sourced, with the bright and prominent ripe fruit typical of the vintage.

Tasting Notes
Brought up mostly in French oak, with a small amount in concrete, the 2018 Pinot Noir Sonoma Coast has that classic Sonoma Coast pretty red fruit-driven style as well as subtle white flower, spice, and even a kiss of minerality. It's beautifully balanced and medium-bodied, with an elegant, ethereal style that still has solid structure. It will drink well for a decade. Maturity: 2020-2030. Score - 94.
