Forest-driven Pinot with smoke-laced cherry and granite backbone.
Red cherry brightened by resinous pine needle lift. Bramble thicket complexity weaves through mineral-driven midpalate. Smoke threads bind everything together. Fine-grained tannins provide structure without weight. Clean mineral finish suggests decade-plus evolution. This captures the wild Sonoma Coast perfectly—untamed yet refined.
