“Ruby garnet in hue, this lovely Pinot Noir is sourced from several Sonoma Coast vineyards. This Pinot Noir spends 15 months in 40% new French oak and undergoes a slow secondary fermentation that enhances the complexity of flavors. The result is a wine which is light and delicate in character offering a fragrant red berry fruit nose and fresh crisp mouth feel with medium acidity and cherry fruit and earth flavors. This wine had been bottled just a week when we tasted it, which explains the score range. It will be released to the public in April 2010. “
