About this bottle
Le Duc Noir's 2016 Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir is sourced from one of California's coolest, fog-cooled Pinot appellations, where slow ripening builds flavor concentration without pushing the alcohol too high. The nose leads with dark cherry, blackberry, and cedar, and the palate follows through with ripe blackberry and dark chocolate over a light dusting of baking spice. Oak shows up mainly on the finish, which runs long and smooth with a gentle vanilla trail rather than heavy tannin. This is a Pinot for drinkers who want the variety's silky texture but with a shade more richness than a typical cool-climate bottling, best saved for a slower dinner built around something roasted.
How to drink Le Duc Noir Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir
Pull the cork twenty minutes before pouring and serve just below room temperature, around 60-65F, so the fruit doesn't get muddled by warmth. It's supple enough to work without food, but a roast chicken or mushroom risotto gives the cedar and spice notes something to play off.
