Labeled as 13% abv. This wine is both "easy drinking" and elegant. Slightly tart berries and a touch of spice mark the flavor palate. There are some tannins present--perhaps from grape skins or whole cluster? This could be cellared for several more years or consumed now. 92-94

Reminds me of Oregon Pinot Noir. Avoids the over extraction often associated with California. Chocolate notes present. Tannin slightly dominant, but copious fruit is present. Finishes a little hot.

This is a well made Sonoma Coast PN. Medium ruby red color. Bright refreshing red fruit, some orange peel, and it is clearly just entering its optimal drinking winbow. Wish I had more. (Note: Not for fans of Cali PN who like big, dark PNs with extracted fruit).
