Bright medium deep purple colour. Fairly intense, slightly spicy, bright crancherry nose with some sandalwood notes. Dry, medium bodied, bright, gently spicy, tangy, crancherry flavours with a faintly cedary, fairly high acid finish. This decent, ready-to-drink, crowd-pleaser from the Sonoma Coast has 13.7% alcohol and 2 g/L residual sugar. |

The Sonoma Coast AVA is home to some of the greatest of California's cool-climate Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Ocean-born fogs and significant variations in aspect and elevation across the region allow for a wonderful range of nuanced, distinctly expressive wines. This one, sourced from the famous Sangiacomo Vineyard, underwent open-top fermentation with indigenous yeast. Expect a complex, refined wine with raspberry and dark fruit tones and a brambly underbelly. Try with cedar-planked salmon, or roast duck. |
