Wine Review: This dark red colored Pinot Noir from Dutton Goldfield opens with an inviting ripe red berry and blueberry bouquet. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied, very well balanced, lush and smooth. The flavor profile is a very tasty ripe red currant and boysenberry with notes of red cherry and strawberry. The finish is dry and its flavors show very nice length for a Pinot. This Pinot is rich enough to drink on its own. With food, I would pair it with duck confit. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: Cool coastal sites like Devil's Gulch love long seasons like 2016. The nose is instantly alluring, tempting you in with rich, brooding aromas of wild berry, loamy forest floor, and violets, with a bright pop of candied raspberry underneath. We love wines that lead this way, urging you to dive in for the first sip. Waves of blueberry compote, creme de cassis, and baking spices fill your mouth, riding on broad, firm and smooth tannins. The finish is juicy and creamy, lingering its wild black raspberry pie notes to a contented end.
