91 Points
Spell Terra de Promissio Vineyard Pinot Noir Sonoma Coast 2014
Pale ruby-purple in color, the 2014 Pinot Noir Terra de Promissio Vineyard reveals a beautiful perfume of violets and roses over notes of crushed cherries and cranberries plus hints of fallen leaves, dried Provence herbs and fungi. Medium-bodied, the palate gives a great concentration of tightly wound fruit with a firm structure of chewy tannins and a long, earthy finish.

Spell Nichole’s Blend Pinot Noir Sonoma County 2015
Medium ruby-purple colored, the 2015 Pinot Noir Nichole’s Blend offers some stemmy notes over a core of black cherries and black raspberries with hints of garrigue, underbrush and fertile earth. Medium to full-bodied and firmly structured on the palate, it has a good amount of ripe, expressive fruit matched by the earthiness, finishing with great persistence.

Spell Nichole’s Blend Pinot Noir Sonoma County 2014
Pale to medium ruby colored, the 2014 Pinot Noir Nichole’s Blend is scented of kirsch, red currants and lavender with a touch of forest floor. Medium-bodied and structured with a lively backbone and chewy tannins, it has a pleasant earthy/stewed tea character on the finish.
