Tasting notes
Pretty as all get-out, this wine is a floral masterpiece—a study in coastal rose and forest scents with a counterpunch of white pepper that leaves one wanting more. Juicy raspberry, strawberry and tangerine flavors are seasoned in allspice and tobacco, the palate so beautifully delicate yet fully realized in savory complexity and length. — Virginie Boone

The 2014 Pinot Noir Coastlands Vineyard is one of the highlights in this range. Deep, sensual and racy, with striking purity in its fruit, the Coastlands captures the best Sonoma Coast has to offer in its interplay of dark-fleshed fruit, aromatics and minerality. A wine of vertical depth and intensity, the Coastlands remains light on its feet throughout. In particular, I admire the wine's substance. Readers will find much to enjoy and discover over the next 10-12 years or more.
