Failla, 2008 Failla Pinot Noir Sonoma Coast

90
"A good, complex Pinot Noir that shows the dramatic structure of the far Sonoma Coast. It's rich in acidity and tannins, yet still is silky and gentle in the mouth. The cherry, raspberry, cola and sandalwood flavors are delicious. Very fine now and for a few more years."
–July 2010

Failla

The Sonoma Coast is a blend of young-vine blocks from our multiple Sonoma Coast appellation sources. A product of the same kid-glove winemaking as our vineyard designated Pinots; the 2008 Sonoma Coast is aged in about 25% new French oak. The most exciting vintage yet of this cuvée offers hints of white pepper, baking spice and black tea which dance around the heady nose of rose petals, blood orange peel, cherry and cola. Fine tannins and a round full mouthfeel give structure to the fresh flavors that linger.
