Dark fruit and wild herbs flow with tremendous energy across the palate. Saline minerality cuts through the richness with laser precision, while firm tannins provide serious backbone. The finish builds with wave after wave of intensity. A sculptural wine from the vineyard surrounding the winery that demands attention.

Occidental

Occidental focuses entirely on the extreme western edge of Sonoma Coast, producing single-vineyard Pinot Noirs from fog-belt sites around Freestone, Bodega, and the Sonoma Coast's windward ridges. The wines are structured, cool-climate in character, and built for the cellar.
