What happens when the winemaker behind some of California’s top boutiques strikes out on his own? Taste for yourself. Bill Knuttel’s the guy, Pinot specialists Saintsbury and Chalk Hill (among others) are the wineries he helped make great, and this is classic Sonoma Pinot Noir.
Bill is a BIG fan of Burgundy. And while that fabled French region may be the spiritual home of Pinot Noir, Sonoma’s boutique wineries make a style all their own. The Sonoma Coasts’s cool, foggy mornings, warm afternoons, and evening sea breezes create ideal conditions for Pinot. Since Bill strives for balance in his wines, this special release sits deliciously between the styles of these two renowned regions.
Like the fencer on the label, this gem from the superb 2018 vintage shows finesse and balance in the glass. Aging in fine French oak barrels imparts spicy notes to the lush fruit flavors. You’ll be rewarded with smooth layers of ripe strawberry, black cherry, raspberry, plus subtle herb and spice, with structured tannins and a long, fresh finish. Since Pinot Noir makes some of the world’s most food-friendly wines, your pairing options are wide open. And this Sonoma Coast exclusive also makes a delicious aperitif.
Bill crafted very few cases of this exclusive Sonoma Pinot – so order quickly to ensure your share.
