Tasting Notes For Schug Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir 2020

The microclimates of the Sonoma Coast AVA include the western portion of Carneros and the Petaluma Gap. The cool climate and low yield of these vineyards allow Pinot Noir grapes to mature slowly while retaining their natural acidity, resulting in a balanced wine with ripe flavors, silky texture and crisp acidity. Aged primarily in large oak casks and “neutral” older barrels, this wine exhibits flavors of cherries, strawberries and spice, with a lively finish that is an ideal accompaniment to grilled fish and fowl or barbecued meats.

Critic Ratings

James Suckling Review – Published April 28, 2022 – Rated 91:Aromas of strawberries, ripe raspberries, cured meat and dried violets. Medium-to full-bodied with good length and steady intensity. Bright, slightly tart fruit on the palate. Fresh and juicy. Drink now.
