HEAD HIGH Pinot Noir, Sonoma County 2019

Bill Price and Prema Behan of Three Sticks fame (among others) have started a fun wine brand that donates a portion of their profits to non-profit organizations that focus on the environment. A blend of Pinot Noir from the Gap’s Crown, Riverfront, and Deodora vineyards, and on the nose, you immediately are hit with a typical Sonoma Coast nose. Displaying black raspberry, red plum, pencil shavings, and a touch of earthiness on the nose. The palate is a tad over-extracted and a touch “sweet” on the palate due to its fruit-forward structure. Medium-low tannins and medium acidity complete the wine. 13,000 cases produced.
