©2019 Duckhorn Wine Company St. Helena, CA 2017 SONOMA COAST PINOT NOIR 96 POINTS “As good as it gets. These wines reach the peak of my personal scale of quality.” “Moving to the two reds, the appellation 2017 Pinot Noir Sonoma Coast reveals a ruby/purple, translucent color as well as a stunning perfume of black raspberries, cassis, crushed violets, spice box, sweet earth. It's rich, medium to full-bodied, has beautiful depth, a kiss of background oak, and a great finish. Mostly destemmed and aged 17 months in 40% new French oak, it's a brilliant wine to drink over the coming decade or more.” -Jeb Dunnuck, JebDunnuck.com June 14, 2019

“As good as it gets. These wines reach the peak of my personal

scale of quality.”

“Moving to the two reds, the appellation

2017 Pinot Noir Sonoma Coast reveals a

ruby/purple, translucent color as well as a

stunning perfume of black raspberries,

cassis, crushed violets, spice box, sweet

earth. It's rich, medium to full-bodied, has

aged 17 months in 40% new French oak,

it's a brilliant wine to drink over the coming

“Lots of the blue fruits and dried flowers

on the nose. Oyster shell too. Medium to

2017 SONOMA COAST PINOT NOIR

91

POINTS

“Outstanding; a wine of superior character and style”

“Features a polished texture, with

concentrated cherry tart, currant and

raspberry flavors that are supported by

fresh tannins. The crisp, focused finish

reveals forest floor notes, accented by hints

of dried sage.”

-Kim Marcus, Wine Spectator
