2023 Saintsbury Pinot Noir Sonoma Coast
“The most complete wine in our portfolio”, according to winemaker Tim Colla. It takes an exceptional amount of tinkering and finesse to blend 7 Single-Vineyard ferments into a harmonious bottling. From Jim Pratt's Sebastopol Hills Vineyard, to the Sangiacomo Family's Roberts Road Vineyard in the Petaluma Gap, these vineyards represent decades of relationships and an understanding of the diversity of Sonoma Pinot Noir. Together, they represent a richer canvas than any one vineyard alone might provide.
15% whole cluster fermentation, 11 months in 10% new French Oak. Just 1083 cases produced!
Black cherry, cranberry, cola and pomegranate aromas. Long and full on the palate with bright plum and rhubarb notes and a refreshingly zesty finish.
