Tasting Notes

WA94

My favorite of this quartet of Pinots is the 2012 Pinot Noir Mortal Coil, which comes from the Phendler Vineyard on the Sonoma Coast. Made from Dijon clones 777 and 115, it exhibits a deep garnet color as well as a big, sweet bouquet of black cherries, blackcurrants, plums, forest floor and spring flowers. Rich, full-bodied, round, juicy and complex, this Côte de Nuits-like 2012 Pinot can be consumed over the next 7-8 years.
