Wild coastal Pinot. Pure silk meets rocky minerality.

Wild strawberry bursts forward. Rose petals, dried herbs follow. Truffle earthiness builds complexity. Chalky minerality cuts through mid-palate. Silky texture belies serious structure underneath. Coastal fog influence clear - restraint with intensity. Tannins fine-grained, persistent. Finish lingers with spice, stone. This vintage hits peak drinking now but holds decade easy. Classic Sonoma Coast character - elegant yet profound.
