Reflecting its Sonoma Coast origins and the long, cool growing season, the 2006 SONOMA COAST PINOT NOIR captures a more elegantly Burgundian expression of Pinot Noir than the 2005 vintage. In the bouquet, this cool-climate charm takes the form of bright, fresh and flirtatious cherry and strawberry flavors. These fetching aromas are echoed on the palate, where complex layers of mulled cherries, strawberries and raspberries intermingle with spicy cinnamon and clove elements. This wine seamlessly combines silky and resolved tannins with juicy mouth-watering natural acidity, making it a natural partner for an array of delicious dishes.
