This wine is ready to impress. Barrel select Pinot Noir from our best vineyards west of Sebastopol, this wine captures the true essence of the Sonoma Coast.

About this wine

WestLands Pinot Noir captures the essence of the West Sonoma Coast. It is sourced from a selection of vineyards located with influences from the Pacific Ocean on the west side of the Sonoma Coast AVA, planted to clones 667, 777 and Pommard.

In 2021, the vintage was slow and steady, which allowed the fruit to gradually ripen, holding its acid and allowing it to develop complexity on the vine. The majority of the fruit for this bottling was picked in mid-September, delivering generous yet balanced yields. This wine is delicately crafted from select barrels and is well-balanced. Pair this wine with duck, pork, Parisian Sunday Chicken with mushroom sauce, and french fries.

Roasted Tomato Jam

This homemade tomato jam makes great use of the abundance of tomatoes during the season and can be used in a number ways but we love it on toasted crostini topped with goat cheese and fresh herbs for an amazing appetizer. Serve it with our WestLands Pinot Noir.
