Tasting Note

This Petaluma Gap-designated wine comes from the southern part of the region, near San Pablo Bay. The wind gap in the coastal mountain range funnels cooling breezes and fog from the Pacific Ocean, resulting in an extended hang time that produces well-balanced, elegant wines of character and distinction. This wine has pure aromas of ripe red cherries, raspberries, black tea, and hints of floral notes. It has delicate flavours of strawberry and cranberry, with a juicy and crisp texture and a light mineral edge. This wine pairs nicely with lamb, duck, and grilled fish and will improve with additional cellaring for 2 to 5 years.

Product Notes

Schug Winery's Petaluma Gap Pinot Noir is an alluring wine, showcasing the best of Californian viniculture. Hailing from a maritime-influenced cooler climate, it presents an enchanting blend of lively red fruit flavours, underpinned by subtle earthy tones. The palate is teased with succulent raspberry and black cherry, entwined with hints of wild herbs and spice. Its superb balance of acidity and sophisticated oak influence endows it with a remarkable depth and complexity. A long, velvety finish completes the sipping experience. A proud ambassador of its region, this exquisite Pinot Noir is the embodiment of elegance, patience, and expertise in wine-making.
