2022 WALT La Brisa Pinot Noir
Pinot Noir - Bob's Ranch and Select Vineyard Partners
Critic Review
"Redolent of cinnamon, Bing cherry and sarsaparilla on the nose, this Pinot gains depth, purity and focus as it hits the palate. Flavors of dried raspberries, fried shiitake mushrooms, fresh mint and pithy tangerine peel along a seamless and vibrant finish."
93 Points | Owen Bargreen
"...The wine is smooth with a seamless mouthfeel and beautiful salty character with pretty red rose water and bright, saline drenched red fruits on the palate."
Strong Winds
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 2022 is packed with cherry, plum, and mulberry flavors, accented with notes of warm spice and rose. The plush weight and lovely, forward fruit are complimented by cool-climate acidity and a light touch of oak barrel.

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.
