2018 Saxon Brown Pinot Noir | Gap's Crown Vineyard, Sonoma Coast California 750ml

One of our higher altitude sites, Gap's Crown Vineyard is tucked on the south western-facing slopes of Sonoma Mountain at between 300 and 900ft elevation. Here, a naturally occurring fog pocket and rocky, brown clay soils combine with an influx of coastal winds from the nearby Petaluma Gap to create the ideal conditions for low yields and long hangtime. We pull from the vineyard's original block, which produced extremely small clusters of deeply concentrated, well balanced fruit. | Saxon Brown

Pie cherries and freshly grated nutmeg invite a dive into this lively and exuberant Pinot Noir. Plentiful fruits continue through the juicy mid palate that winds around more sweet anise and nutmeg to a finish that tingles with acidity. | Falling Bright
