In the bull’s-eye of its drinking window; terrific Sonoma Cost Pinot. Dark cherry, burnt cedar, cola, herbal notes. Full and round, really well balanced & with nice depth on the palate without feeling heavy. Drinking wonderfully.

I like MKMAST's short note from August 2011. Since then, the spiral is only upward. This is what I hope for when I see Sonoma Coast on a wine label, and methink this one of the best examples of the vintage. Beautiful fruit and balance. Deep cranberry, medium weight, buoyant acidity, and not too heavy on the alcohol (13.9% abv). Lush, with a piquant mid-palate. Finishes delightfully long. Drink or hold.

Very typical flavors for a Sonoma Coast pinot. Excellent quality price ratio. Aromatic with good forest floor and cherry cola rising to the fore.
