Bing cherry and notes of dried cranberry pop in the glass, while underlying notes of wild herbs help balance the profile. Plums and spice round out the aromatics of this Sonoma Coast blend. Bright acidity, with a mandarin orange essence, give way to dark chocolate and a firm black tea finish that is accentuated by hints of toasted almond. As is typical of the Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir blend, patience is required to achieve full integration. Learn More

Earth and fruit are both complexly expressed in this nearly-opaque, massive-yet-controlled Pinot from the always impressive Pisoni Vineyard.

Lancelot famously became a “Sir” in the course of his adventures, and this very well may be our knighted vintage. Learn More
