Shimmering garnet. A highly complex bouquet evokes red berry preserves and cherry cola, along with exotic spice, rose oil and mineral accents. Shows fine delineation on the palate, offering vibrant, spice-laced red fruit liqueur, blood orange and spicecake flavors that pick up a floral pastille nuance with air. Finishes extremely long and precise, with fine-grained tannins adding shape and grip to lingering raspberry, baking spice and mocha notes. Made with roughly 17% whole clusters.

The 2019 Pinot Noir Shea Vineyard will be the last iteration of this single vineyard for Hundred Suns, which is bittersweet because this iteration is magical. It boasts pure spice and earth aromatics, with intense cranberry and blueberry and wafts of tobacco leaves. Grainy, fresh and seamless, it's über detailed, with a flourish of Angostura-like spices on the long finish.

Aromas of raspberries, crushed strawberries, toffee and sweet spices. It’s medium-bodied with fine tannins and lively acidity. Vibrant and creamy with a bright core of fruit and a long, flavorful finish. Drink or hold.
