Note di degustazione
The 2021 Boars’ View ‘The Coast’ Pinot Noir is medium ruby-purple in color. It needs a little swirling to bring out notes of fresh black raspberries, Morello cherries, and wild blueberries, leading to suggestions of iris, crushed rocks, underbrush, and mossy tree bark. The full-bodied palate delivers a rock-solid backbone of grainy tannins and bold freshness to frame the taut, muscular black fruit layers, finishing long and earthy. It is 100% Calera clone and 400 cases were made.

A semi-opaque red, the 2021 Pinot Noir The Coast is entirely Calera clone and is ripe with black cherry liqueur, sage, and clean dark earth. Full-bodied, with a meaty texture and driving acidity, it’s well-balanced, with more red fruit on the palate, including ripe raspberry and iron-rich earth. It has substantial structure, ripe tannins, and a gravelly rich texture. Allow it another couple of years in the cellar and drink 2025-2040. Founded in 2007, the Boars' View estate was planted by Ulises Valdez with the help of Thomas Rivers Brown, in the same geological bowl as Marcassin. The nine acres of the property planted to vines are mostly Pinot Noir, with a small amount of Chardonnay. The wine style is a significant departure from the supple and elegant wines of Rivers Marie in that they are modeled after the aesthetic of Schrader’s style of Cabernet. These are brawny wines with a more obvious stamp of oak influence and opulence and are reflective of their more mountainous, coastal terrain.
