Alex Guarachi was the founder of TGIC Importers, the largest importer of South American wines to the United States. The family label is the culmination of a lifelong dream to produce his own wines. He brought on Paul Hobbs as winemaker to produce a Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon from vineyards in Sonoma and Napa counties. The Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir comes from Cap's Crown Vineyard.

2008 Guarachi Family Wines Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir
14.8% alc., $40.
One of the heaviest bottles I have ever lifted!
·
Moderately dark garnet color.
Alluring perfume of spiced fresh berries with a minty garnish. Tasty and smooth
in the mouth with plenty of dark cherry and berry intensity and a touch of cola, all
wrapped in modest sinewy tannins. The wine’s sensual texture speaks Pinot.
Very good.
