Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir 2023
Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir
Precise plum with vanilla-scented wild strawberry.
In the glass, the Pinot shows a bright ruby with brick-red reflections. Clear, brilliant and of medium density, like polished granite in the evening light. Fine streaks run calmly down the glass, announcing balance, maturity and an elegant, cool coastal style.
The nose reveals a precise interplay of sour cherry, red plum, and wild strawberry. Behind that lie leather, damp earth, tobacco, and a hint of vanilla from the wood. Cool, spicy, slightly smoky, and with that saline breeze that only the Pacific delivers.
On the palate, it feels silky yet taut. Red fruit glides over a firm, salty acidity, with tannins reminiscent of fine suede. Cinnamon, a hint of licorice, and cool forest floor build depth. Dry, precise, and with a long, vibrant finish.
Cool coastal sites, long ripening, and careful hand-picking create tension instead of opulence. The oak aging is present but never dominant. Everything aims for a balance between freshness and ripeness. This controlled restraint is precisely what makes it so distinctive and unique.
