Tasting Notes

Appearance:
Medium ruby with garnet highlights and brilliant clarity.

Nose:
The bouquet is lifted and expressive, with plump aromas of sour cherry, black cherry, and raspberry preserve. Notes of dried wildflowers, violets, and purple sage intermingle with hints of blood orange peel, toasty oak, and a touch of vanilla bean.

Palate:
Silky and refined, the palate opens with tart cranberry and fresh raspberries, followed by layers of blood orange, red plum, and a delicate note of vanilla custard. Earthy undertones and a subtle trace of anise spice add depth. The oak is present but balanced, supporting the vibrant acidity and supple tannins that guide a focused, elegant structure.

Finish:
Lingering and bright, with echoes of red berries, spice, and a cleansing citrus zest that gives way to a savory, mineral finish.

Why Liquor Geeks recommends it

This is single-vineyard Pinot Noir from the Stone Corral Vineyard, grown on an uplifted seabed in the Edna Valley, one of California's coolest AVAs. In the glass it is bright, lifted and quietly mineral. The nose brings sour cherry, black cherry and raspberry preserve woven with violets, purple sage and blood orange peel. The palate stays silky, with tart cranberry, red plum and a delicate note of vanilla custard over earthy, anise-tinged depth. Oak from the barrel aging is present but balanced, letting vibrant acidity and supple tannins set a focused, elegant frame. It suits the Pinot drinker who values purity of fruit and finesse over weight. It works at tonight's dinner table and in the cellar, with five to seven more years of potential development. We carry it because it is a clear, honest reflection of place: a 2018 estate wine that shows the cool-climate charm and marine influence of coastal California in a polished, expressive way.

Pairs well with

Herb-roasted duck with cherry gastrique — The wine's sour and black cherry fruit echoes the gastrique, while its bright acidity cuts through the richness of the duck.
Wild mushroom risotto — Earthy undertones and a subtle anise spice in the wine mirror the savory depth of the mushrooms.
Thanksgiving or holiday dinner — Its red berry fruit, supple tannins and lively acidity flex across a crowded table of dishes without overwhelming any of them.
