The appellation 2018 Pinot Noir Sonoma Coast was brought up all in French oak, with 40% being new. It's a larger production effort yet delivers impressive quality, with plenty of pretty red and black berry fruit as well as subtle floral nuances. Nicely textured, medium-bodied, with good acidity, and a clean finish, this rock-solid effort has lots of Sonoma Coast character. Drink it over the coming 4-5 years. It's a step up over the 2017 and a good value.
