2023 Panthera Pinot Noir, Sonoma Coast

Panthera wines are inspired by the subtleties in strength — captured through the bright acidity created by the cool climate of the Sonoma Coast and coaxed into powerful flavors by the winemaker at the blending table.
About

FROM THE CELLAR

“This Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir opens with enticing aromas of sarsaparilla, Bing cherry, and ripe wild strawberry. Beneath its inviting first impression lies a layered complexity, where subtle notes of anise and dried sage add depth and intrigue. On the palate, bright summer fruits burst across the mid-palate, seamlessly intertwined with delicate tea nuances and a touch of allspice. Soft, supple tannins carry the flavors into a silky, enduring finish."

– Stephanie Pope, Winemaker
