Crushed stone and white pepper define the nose, with hints of wild lavender adding intrigue. The palate delivers focused blue fruit intensity wrapped in saline minerality. Firm structure and driving acidity create remarkable tension through the sustained finish. Occidental's most structured and cellar-worthy bottling.

→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.
