2012 Coastlands Vineyard Pinot Noir

High above the town of Occidental on the Coast Range, the Coastlands Vineyard is influenced by ocean fog and cool breezes. The results are compelling, offering diverse aromatics and flavors. Deep in color, notes of black cherry, tree bark and sandalwood rise from the glass while nutmeg and other wood spices contribute to the complexity of this wine. The refined tannins make for a round, plush wine with a lift of acidity to maintain the focus — a truly unique site which produces a very small amount of fruit.
