“This beautiful wine is full of flirtatious hints that draw you right in… The flavors are all early spring freshness, ripe red berries, bramble bush spice, elegant terroir, hints of roast coffee and cocoa powder rounding off the smooth, rich black cherry, silky-long finish. Great presence of fresh acidity and a lovely balance, deep Pinot Noir fruit and fresh acidity & structure gives you an incredible wine and an outstanding value. Classic, lovely Sonoma Pinot Noir that tastes like a $40 wine.”

This elegant, energized wine combines bright raspberry and red-cherry aromas with flinty, mineral accents and lip-smacking red and black cherry flavors. It shows great balance and will be fun to watch as it matures further. Best through 2030.

The 2021 Pinot Noir (Sonoma County) is bright and nicely focused, with lovely red berry, spice and floral character. This mid-weight, fruity Pinot is a charmer. Finding value in Pinot Noir is very hard. Banshee's 2021 fits the bill.

A transparent medium red, the 2021 Pinot Noir Sonoma County is fresh with attractive aromas of red raspberry, fresh herbs, and delicate baking spices. Medium-bodied, it is fresh with clean lift, fine tannins, and notes of red berries, dusty earth, and orange. It is a very attractive wine for the price and is wonderful for youthful drinking.
