Banshee Pinot Noir

Fruit is sourced from the Russian River Valley, Carneros, the Petaluma Gap AVA, and Sonoma Valley. The wine is fermented in stainless steel and barrel-aged for approximately 10 months in 15% new French oak. This Pinot Noir showcases a riper, fruit-forward style typical of Sonoma while maintaining a serious, expressive personality. Present yet gentle tannins with layers of salty mineral character support the wine's structure. Notes of blood orange, cranberry, and espresso bean are complemented by a lengthy finish marked by violet florals and a touch of minerality—a bright and balanced expression of Sonoma Pinot Noir.

A nicely structured, nicely balanced wine, this is tangy and firm, offering black cherries, cinnamon and dark plums braced by red cherry freshness. Very fresh, focused and vibrant. Drink or hold.
