Julien Fayard "Platt" Pinot Noir, Sonoma Coast 2021

The 2021 vintage of Platt Vineyard Pinot Noir spotlights the energetic red fruit and earthy complexity of this cooler-climate Sonoma Coast site. The nose shines with juicy red cherries and raspberry compote, supported by aromas of black tea, warm vanilla and cool forest bramble. On the palate, sweet-tart red fruits like barberry, strawberry, and cranberry mingle with grounding notes of graphite, forest floor, and dried rose petal. Light-bodied as a Burgundy, this wine floats along with uncommon delicacy through the clean, mouthwatering finish.
