Introduction:
The 2022 Olema Pinot Noir is a silky and expressive red that highlights Sonoma County’s cool-climate elegance. Balancing bright fruit with earthy depth, it’s crafted for both immediate enjoyment and short-term cellaring.

Terrior:
Sourced from vineyards across Sonoma County’s varied subregions, including Russian River Valley and Sonoma Coast. The combination of well-drained sandy loam soils and Pacific breezes allows for slow ripening, developing nuanced flavors while preserving natural acidity.

Appearance:
Vivid ruby-red with medium concentration and youthful brilliance.

Nose:
Aromas of ripe cherry, wild strawberry, and cranberry are accented by rose petal, baking spice, and a hint of forest floor.

Palate:
Medium-bodied, with soft, velvety tannins and a lively acid backbone. Red berry and pomegranate flavors dominate, supported by subtle clove, cola, and earthy undertones from gentle oak influence.

Finish:
Elegant and persistent—fruit and spice linger with a touch of minerality and silky tannin structure.

Overall Impression:
A polished and versatile Pinot Noir that captures Sonoma’s balance of fruit purity and savory complexity. Excellent with roasted salmon, mushroom risotto, poultry dishes, or soft cheeses.
