2007 Peay Vineyards Estate Pinot Noir, Sonoma Coast

The 2007 Estate Pinot Noir was the predecessor to the Ama cuvée and in the warm 2007 vintage this wine leapt from the glass with cherry, sandalwood, and tea aromas. Now at a mere 18 years of age, this wine still sings but has added more floral, rose petal and brass aromas to the core of cherry fruit. The mouth feel is cohesive, supple and soothing with savory flavors and good acidity on the very long finish. This tastes like a 10 year old wine and is gorgeous.
