Occidental Bodega Headlands Vineyard Cuvée Elizabeth Pinot Noir 2017 is a single-vineyard red wine sourced from the Sonoma Coast AVA. Produced by Occidental Wines, founded by esteemed winemaker Steve Kistler, this Pinot Noir is crafted exclusively from grapes grown in the Bodega Headlands Vineyard. This vineyard benefits from high elevation and a southwest orientation, just a stone`s throw from the Pacific Ocean. The soil composition of marine sediments and fractured sandstone contributes to the wine`s distinctive character. Notably, the vineyard block used for this cuvée features plants from unique massale selections from Grand Cru Vosne-Romanée.

The 2017 Pinot Noir Bodega Headlands Cuvée Elizabeth is a very pretty and expressive wine. Bright floral notes and red-toned fruits grace this supple, racy Pinot from Occidental. Hints of Asian spice and blood orange add pretty, exotic overtones. The 2017 was done with fully destemmed fruit, but it has a very attractive savory quality. This is such a classy and restrained Pinot, but there is plenty of density and weight as well. I can't wait to see how it ages. Antonio Galloni1st January 2020
