Winemaker's Notes:
From the Sonoma Coast wine region, this Pinot Noir has elegant varietal fruit character, with rich aromas and flavors of raspberry, cherry, red current and boysenberries. Hints of mushroom are supported by a subtle oak influence. This wine will evolve into a silky and smooth wine with time in the bottle.

More interesting and complex is the 2009 Pinot Noir Sonoma Coast (88,000 cases produced). It exhibits classic Burgundian notes of forest floor, sweet black cherries, pomegranate and raspberries. This earthy, spicy, richly fruity, medium-bodied Pinot should be consumed over the next 3-4 years.
