Flowers Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir 2023

$4699

Coastal fog and cool nights shape this elegant Pinot Noir from organically farmed vineyards on Sonoma's windswept coast. The 2023 shows gravel dust, pine tar, and smashed blue fruits with whispers of violet, followed by a core of wild red and blue brambles with a nearly feral character. Dried herbs, black tea, and mace complete the savory picture. Aged 10 months in 20% new French oak—a wine that rewards slow contemplation and pairs beautifully with roasted poultry or grilled salmon.

Antonio Galloni

"The 2023 Pinot Noir (Sonoma Coast) is another terrific wine from Flowers. Bright, aromatic and lifted, it offers up an exotic mélange of crushed red berry fruit, cedar, cinnamon, pipe tobacco and dried herbs. Strong floral and savory inflections lend energy throughout. The 2023 is light on its feet and quite delicate, not to mention long on personality." —Antonio Galloni

"The 2023 Pinot Noir Sonoma Coast was matured for 10 months in 20% new French oak. Cranberry and blackberry aromas pour from the glass, accented by wafts of saline, aniseed and Earl Grey tea leaves. The medium-bodied palate is bursting with bitters- and citrus-laced flavors. It’s structured by silky tannins and bight acidity and has a long, expressive finish. 34,600 cases produced." —Erin Brooks

Decanter

"There is an oomph and intensity to the 2023 Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir from Flowers, with ripe fruits and generous forest character. Aromas of gravel dust, pine tar and smashed blue fruits come to the fore with whispers of violet florality. The palate shows a core of red and blue brambles, a nearly feral character to them. The savoury elements are followed by dried herbs, black tea, and a touch of mace. There's an intense saline throughline that crescendos at the finish."

Wine Spectator

92 points

"Fresh and focused, with raspberry and blood orange coulis lined with rooibos tea and savory notes. A subtle mineral thread supports the finish. Offers a textbook Sonoma Coast profile. Drink now through 2029."

Wine Enthusiast

93 points

"This aromatic and savory wine brings aromas of roasted shiitake, black plum and clove on the nose. The palate shows spicy energy and flavors of blackberry, plum skin, sweet cinnamon and forest floor across a long, meandering finish."
