94 Points Pinot Report A fantastic new Pinot Noir label from - get on the bandwagon now! 94 Points Pinot Report: "Medium-deep ruby color; bright spice and complex dark cherry aromas; complex dark cherry flavors with spice and loamy notes; silky texture; great structure and balance; long finish. Complex and rich Pinot with great flavors. This wine is an awesome value." The 2015 vintage of the Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir showcases a number of exceptional coastal vineyards. These vineyards span the whole breadth of Sonoma County, from the southern Petaluma Gap to northern Annapolis. Pinot noir from Sangiacomo and Rodgers Creek vineyards provide familiar lush textures and concentrated flavors. Campbell Ranch adds highlighted fruit characters. Riddle and Wohler vineyards add big ripe berry fruits and richness to this complex Pinot noir. The 2014 vintage shows bright aromas of crushed berries and dark cherries with notes of earth and forest floor, leading to lush textures and a long finish. A respected wine critic said it best "...a testament to the fact that an appellation blend in the hands of the right winemaker can be as good or better than a vineyard designate." This wine is a tremendous value at $39!

This is a special Pinot. Vintage in and vintage out, it is the epitome of silky and stylish. Ripe red fruit, red florals on the nose, gorgeous purity of fruit. This, along with Cristom's Mt. Jefferson are the benchmarks for entry-level Pinots from phenomenal Pinot producers.

Real good! This is the blended, sold in a store crap...you should try the real stuff! Just got back from Sonoma tasting at Sojourn with Lisa. A must in Sonoma if you love Pinot. Amazing. It was my wife’s favorite.

I heard a lot about this winery and almost visited their tasting room in Sonoma. Disappointed with their basic Pinot. Aromatic but not overly complex. Lacks structure and acidity. The wine don’t last in your mouth as long as great wines do. Good wine for $20-30 but not for $40+.

Earthy tones, needs to breathe for a bit before drinking. Very smooth, strawberry/cranberry flavors. Will let the next bottle age a few years before trying again. 3rd year anniversary
