Flowers Vineyards Pinot Noir Sonoma Coast 2022

MXN $2295

Grape: 100% Pinot Noir

Region: Sonoma Coast, California, USA

You’ll taste/smell: The 2022 Pinot Noir is part of the TOP 100 wines for 2024 by Wine Enthusiast. Opens with fresh aromas of coastal evergreens and wildflowers. Hints of early-season cherries follow, macerated in warm spices (anise, cardamom, allspice) and layered over earthy sandalwood. Ripe yet tangy dark berries, wearing a little dust from the patch, star on a lightly textured palate, giving way to savory herbs, delicately tannic red tea, and a pop of salty sea beans. A fascinating play of light fruit and dark spice is finished with a bright squeeze of orange peel.

Good to have it with: a nice meaty charcuterie and cheese board; stuffed mushrooms, grilled veggies.
