2019 WALT La Brisa Pinot Noir
Pinot Noir - Bob's Ranch Vineyard, Gap's Crown Vineyard & Select Grower Partners
Critic Review
"The 2019 Pinot Noir La Brisa hails from the Sonoma Coast and has a rich, ripe, sexy style that still shows elegance and purity as well as complexity. Lots of black raspberry and mulberry fruit emerge from this medium to full-bodied effort, which has plenty of bouquet garni and spice-laced aromatics, ripe, soft tannins, and a great finish. It brings lots of fruit in a balanced, textured, incredibly satisfying package."
92 Points | Wine Spectator, Kim Marcus
"A woodsy aroma leads to well-spiced flavors of chocolate brioche and dark plum tart, ending with concentrated toastiness on the long, juicy finish."

Help develop fruit of vibrant, balanced acidity.
Sonoma Coast Appellation
Heavy fog and strong winds tempered by bright afternoon sunshine
The Soil
Cotati Fine Loam, and Loam soil with rock.
The 2019 La Brisa opens with ample cherry, strawberry and cranberry flavors accented with dried herbs and tea. The rich texture and fine tannins are complimented by cool-climate acidity and whole cluster complexity. Toasty barrel notes carry through a savory finish.

This blend is predominately from our Bob’s Ranch Estate, with Gap’s Crown and Calesa vineyards completing the blend which features both Dijon and heritage clones. The resulting combination of diverse vineyard sites and clonal variation creates a complex wine with abundant fruit, making it a delicious Sonoma Coast blend.
