We are thrilled to present the inaugural release of our Bateman Vineyard Pinot Noir from the Sonoma Coast. Although we have worked with the vineyard for a few years, we feel we have found its true character in the 2009 vintage. A perfumed nose is highlighted with notes of lilac and fresh cut flowers but evolves into a deep and serious fruit profile with elements of black cherry, fresh berry jam, and cola. The silky elegant yet weighty entry and mouthfeel of this wine is what sets this wine apart. This wine is delicious from the beginning, but will age nicely for years to come
