Complex aromas of cocoa powder, black cherries and black raspberries are balanced with crushed quartz and dried rose petal nuances. The layered flavors of perfectly ripe, dark berries and dried flowers transition to a silky elegant and lingering finish of coffee and minerals.

Land's Edge Pinot Noir is sourced predominately from our estate's Far Coast Vineyard, located in the Sonoma Coastal Mountain Range-north of the Russian River and overlooking the Pacific Ocean. This cool and often foggy, coastal climate preserves natural acidity in the grapes and helps delineate purity of fruit flavors, balanced acidity, layers of complexity and fine grained tannins.
