This Pinot Noir comes from the Sullivan Vineyard in the Sonoma Mountain AVA, on an elevation of 750-900 feet. The 2014 is a remarkable showing, which underwent 10% whole cluster fermentation and spent 20 months in French oak (20% new) prior to bottling. This settles in the glass with aromas of crushed white flowers, lavender, red cherry and red raspberry. This leads to flavors of red cherry, red raspberry with a long and lingering finish that coats the palate. Very solid and lovely balance to this striking Pinot. (Best 2016-2027) - March, 2016 (OB)
