Banshee Wines

2012 Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir

The Global Wine Company Banshee Wines 2012 Pinot Noir from the Sonoma Coast is a delightful expression of this elegant varietal. This red wine showcases a medium body that envelops the palate in a luscious embrace, complemented by a balanced acidity that adds a vibrant brightness to the experience. On the nose, enticing aromas of dark cherry and blackberry signal the wine's potential, while subtle earthy notes of truffle and forest floor deepen the complexity. The tannins are soft and approachable, providing structure without overpowering the fruit. With a dry profile, this Pinot Noir leaves a lasting impression that invites another sip, making it a wonderful companion for a variety of dishes, from grilled salmon to roasted vegetables.

Sonoma County
Sonoma County

Many of California's world-class wines come from Sonoma County, separated from Napa by the Mayacamas Mountains. Three times the size of Napa, Sonoma is an incredibly diverse region. Cool coastal zones, fog-cloaked hillsides, sheltered valleys and craggy exposed peaks give Sonoma a vast array of terroirs and microclimates. Its many sub-regions produce a broad range of styles: from the bold Cabernets of Alexander Valley to the fragrant Pinots of Sonoma Coast and the sublime Chardonnays of Chalk Hill.
