Aston Estate Pinot Noir 2009

This remarkable and profound wine amply delivers on the brilliant promise of our estate vineyard in the heart of California’s “True” Sonoma Coast. Super-lush and abundant, the wine is distinguished by a heady and intense mélange of ripe fruit and spice aromatics supported by deep, luxurious flavors, and stunning complexity.

Upon entry, the wine explodes with ultra-ripe red fruit character interlaced with threads of seductive briar and black stone fruit and complemented with enticing notes of roasted cinnamon and nutmeg, and sweet anise. Bright sparks of sweet citrus peel and orange pekoe complement the generous fruit core. On the palate, the wine offers an immensely satisfying experience that is pure velvet — smooth and supple, and balanced with fine acidity and great structure.

Truly, this noteworthy vineyard has come into its own and brought forward an astonishing harvest, and, partnered with Thomas’ great talent, has produced a world-class Pinot Noir with classic Burgundian finesse and lusty Sonoma Coast abundance.
