La Crema Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir (75cl, 13.5%)

A Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir from La Crema, bottled at 13.5% ABV in a 750ml bottle. The wine is drawn from 43 vineyards across 342 plots, with roughly 400 separate ferments blended into the final cuvée. Grapes are precision-sorted and crushed in small batches, then aged for at least nine months in oak barrels. The nose shows macerated cherry and cranberry with cinnamon, mocha and earthy mushroom, lifted by orange zest. The palate is plush with red cherry, raspberry coulis, blood orange and dark berry, with cocoa, mint and baking spice. Fine-grained tannins lead to a medium-long finish of nutmeg, vanilla and subtle oak.
