2016 Sangiacomo Vi Maria Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir 14.5% alc., pH 3.70, TA 0.57, 81 cases, $80. Release September 2018. 50% Amaral, 25% Roberts Road and 25% Fedrick vineyards. Clones 667, 777, Pommard and Swan selection. 100% de-stemmed, 5-day cold soak, daily punch downs by hand, aged 16 months in French oak barrels, 50% new. · Moderate garnet color in the glass. Invigorating aromas of black cherry, cardamom spice, fertile earth and a hint of toast and graham are revealed slowly in the glass. Rather bold in a mid weight plus style, but stealthy, with an abundance of boysenberry, blackberry and black grape flavors. There is a bit of umami in this wine. Sleek tannins lead to a satiny texture and the oak blends seamlessly over time in the glass. More enchanting when tasted the following day from a previously opened and re-corked bottle. Score: 93.
