Hess Panthera Pinot Noir 2019, Sonoma Coast, Sonoma County

Winemaker notes:  Panthera Pinot Noir showcases dynamic tension in wine style as this wine displays both a vibrant purity of fruit and a confident oak profile. Expansive and silky on the palate, notes of red plum, raspberry compote, and Bing cherry work in harmony with elegant tannins, supported by a signature backbone of acidity  nurtured on the Sonoma Coast. The deft baseline of toasted oak introduces hints of clove and baking spice to round out the perfectly balanced, lingering finish.
