2018 WALT The Corners Pinot Noir
Pinot Noir - The Corners
Critic Review
"Almost-sweet flavors of butter and butterscotch complement plenty of ripe strawberry and black-plum notes in this full-bodied and very smooth-textured wine. It's generous, ripe and delicious."
91 Points | Wine Spectator, Kim Marcus
"Rich, contoured and juicy, with concentrated cherry tart and dark plum flavors that offer creamy nuances. Cardamom and toasty notes emerge on the suave finish.


"The Corners"
Our estate vineyard lies on the west end of
Anderson Valley, near the town of Boonville.
The Vineyard
Planted on hillside slopes with gravelly clay soils
and southern exposures
Warm Afternoon Sun
Fully ripens grapes, while cool breezes from the
Pacific Ocean—only 12 miles away—
extends the growing season
Medium-pale ruby color, this wine has fresh, effusive aromas of black cherry, blueberry compote, tobacco leaf, and dried mushroom rise from the glass. The rich and seamless mouthfeel is full of luscious dark fruit flavors. Elements of spice and density are heightened by the inclusion of roasted stems in the fermentation. The vivid, lingering finish is laced with hints of baking spices.

This is a very unique vineyard from Anderson Valley, featuring steep hillsides combined with light gravelly soils that create optimal ripening conditions. The Corners is typically sourced from the upper elevation blocks, where small vines and berries produce a concentrated and opulent wine.
