The 2023 Sonoma Coast Rosé of Pinot Noir presents pale pink-ruby in the glass with perfumed aromas of strawberry, cranberry, and rose petal. On the palate, layers of juicy raspberry, fresh-cut watermelon, and a hint of crunchy sea salt are supported by a backbone of energetic, crisp acidity. Sumptuous, lifted, and bright, the smooth texture creates good tension, leading to a long, refreshing finish.

Sonoma Coast

The vineyards along the Sonoma Coast feature marine influences that define this sweeping appellation, an area that stretches from the San Pablo Bay all the way to the Mendocino County line.

The Sonoma Coast American Viticulture Area (AVA) covers over 480,000 acres, with roughly 7,000 acres planted with vines.  Temperatures are moderate, with evenings dipping to 40s as a result of the fog off Bodega Bay and day time highs typically in the low 70s.  Growing grapes in the dramatically cool western reaches of Sonoma County is complex and demanding, with the end result truly worth the risk. The resulting fruit produces wines that are elegant and intensely structured.
