Tasting Experience
This radiant Pinot Noir shimmers with a ruby hue and opens with fragrant aromas of red cherry, raspberry, and forest floor. Subtle floral notes of violet and a touch of clove bring elegance and complexity to the bouquet. On the palate, bright red fruit takes center stage, with layers of red currant, plum, and a trace of minerality. The wine’s balanced acidity and silky tannins create a refined mouthfeel, leading to a lingering finish that captures the freshness and finesse of the Sonoma Coast.

For a relaxed summer evening, serve it with wild mushroom flatbread or a goat cheese and strawberry arugula salad. This Pinot Noir’s finesse and food-friendliness make it a versatile companion for every kind of summer celebration—from backyard brunches to twilight dinners.
