The 2018 Pinot Noir Gap’s Crown Vineyard has open-knit aromas of cranberry sauce, red berry jam and baked rhubarb with accents of Earl Grey tea leaves, dusty earth and spices. The medium-bodied palate is silky and lifted with bright, spicy fruits and juicy acidity carrying the spicy finish. 1,245 cases produced.
Also from the Sonoma Coast, the 2018 Pinot Noir Gap's Crown was completely destemmed and spent 10 months in 45% new French oak. Black raspberries, cranberries, sappy herbs, and spring flower notes all emerge from the glass, and it's medium-bodied, elegant, and lively on the palate, with more acidity than the Bob's Ranch release. It's another classy wine from winemaker Megan Gunderson that should keep for 5-7 years.
