WINEMAKER NOTES:
Eighteen small, independent family-owned vineyard sites come together in this gorgeous display of Patz & Hall Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir. This is an approachable Pinot Noir showing alluring freshness and purity. The nose displays intense aromas of Bing cherry, strawberry, dried rose petal and licorice notes. Nicely dense and full on the palate, the fresh acidity and bright red fruit flavors resolve on a juicy, detailed finish. The 2018 Patz & Hall Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir offering has the essential elegance, purity and complexity that defines great Pinot Noir.
TASTING NOTES:
This is a great representation of coastal intensity and freshness, built around a spicy, full- bodied core of dark-berry fruit, crushed rock and dried herb. Forest and tea accents underscore its wild appeal and provenance.
