Top Notes For
Sipping Fine Wine

Situated at top of Kings Ridge Road along Sonoma Coast, overlooks Pacific at 2000 feet elevation. Ruby with aromas of tangy red fruit aromas, floral and toasty oak spice notes. On the palate a rich full flavor of strawberry and black cherry with exotic spice, earthy oak and firm chalky tannins. Lively acidity gives the wine good balance and carries through the finish with fruit and earthy mineral character ending with subtle notes of cacao. Very Nice!

2021 vintage. Holy bleep…heavy body and smoky nose. Great concentration and depth throughout. Not just an over-extracted fruit bomb. 4.20.23.

Expected more fruit forward but got a more Wilamette valley/Burgundy style. Very nice

Bright fruit and cinnamon on the nose. Silky mouthfeel with intense dark fruit and cocoa tastes, along with subtle earth tones. An elegant Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir.

Studying is hard work. Probably could have given this more time in the bottle but it's very good now. Earthy, not overly ripe, almost Burgundian in flavor even with the 14.5%
