2019 TERRA DE PROMISSIO VINEYARD Sonoma Coast
$60.00
- Description
The Vineyard
The Terra de Promissio Vineyard is owned and managed by Charles and Diana Karren, with the help of Diana’s parents; it is a true family operation. Planted in 2002 to Pinot Noir clones 777 and 115, it is located east of Petaluma on a rolling hill in what is unofficially referred to as the Petaluma Gap of the Sonoma Coast AVA. Buffeted by cold maritime winds the fruit ripens slowly and produces wines of exceptional elegance and purity.Winemaker Notes
Similar in color to the Nichole’s Blend, but with Sonoma Coast’s classic translucence, the 2019 Terra de Promissio exists at the crossroads of old-world flavors with new world intensity. “TdP” slinks from the glass on beguiling aromatics of sappy Burgundian fruit notes, damp pine forest and earthy mushroom notes. On the palate, the intensity takes hold with a bold expression of black cherries, pine resin, savory smoked meats, and tanned leather. The savory, smoky fruit notes cling to the back of the palate on the long satisfying finish. The 2019 TdP drinks beautifully today and it will gain significant complexity over the coming decade.Vinification
