2018 Ram's Gate Pinot Noir Sonoma Coast

Winemaker Notes:  An exciting introduction to our Pinot Noir program, the Sonoma Coast is the embodiment of cool-climate growing regions. Our journey along the Western edge introduces new parcels into the blend from the Petaluma Wind Gap, southernly located, and a touch of Russian River Valley to provide depth. Hints of rhubarb, rose petal and star anise add complexity as the wine opens up. Dark red fruit, forest floor and holiday spice enhance the freshness and verve on the palate. A remarkable representation of vintage and variety, we are thrilled with its drinkability today and future age-worthiness.

CRITICAL ACCLAIM


Wine Enthusiast - " Fruity and earthy in good measure, this memorable wine is effusive in baked cherry and racy acidity, the spice components equally intriguing in cardamom, clove and pepper. Cohesive and supple on the palate, it is a great showcase for the vintage and appellation."
