2018 UV-SL Vineyard Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir

Our most masculine Pinot Noir, the UV-SL is opulent in color, reflecting a tangible fullness across the palate.  The vineyard’s proximity to the ocean is deceptive, as the notably warm climate allows the grapes to reach our optimal ripeness.

Mark Aubert’s Tasting Notes

The 2018 UV-SL Pinot Noir is poised and focused. This stunning wine exudes elegance, concentration, and a compelling signature of soil. The intriguing bouquet boasts complex dark berries, black cherries, and pomegranate reduction with suggestions of sage, pine resin and an ethereal iron note. The tannin profile is fine-grained with a crystalline quality, integrating seamlessly with the vintage’s bright acidity to promise a long life ahead. Suggested drinking window is 2021 through 2033.
