Varietals:  Pinot Noir, Dijon 777 & 115

Appellation:  Sonoma Coast

Winemaker:  Ryan Zepaltas

Winemaking Techniques:  16 months in barrels using 40% new French oak.   

Cases Produced:  96

Tasting Notes:  Aromas of wet stones, sheep’s milk cheese, light cherry and a bit of earthy funk. As the wine opens up, the classic Suacci flavors are here: pomegranate, raspberry, and rosemary. This wine is definitely tight and will need some cellaring/decanting to loosen itself up.
