"There are expert levels of integration going on throughout this bottling, starting with the subtle yet persistent aromas of raspberry, cranberry, potpourri and light sagebrush that continually draw in the nose. The palate's firm texture elevates the cherry compote, citrus rind and strawberry cream flavors, with a lingering sense of violet painting the corners. This will be exciting to watch for years. Drink now-2040." - Wine Enthusiast 97WE
The only 'cult' Pinot Noir and Chardonnay producer in the Central Coast, Sea Smoke focuses on the meticulous management of each vine to achieve ideal vine balance and very low yields, while incorporating sustainable, environmentally sound, organic and biodynamic farming practices. Ten different clones of Pinot Noir create wines of exceptional complexity and grace – each one, they believe, a reflection of the unique terroir of their estate vineyard.
