Failla 'Lola' Pinot Noir

2018 PINOT NOIR, LOLA, SONOMA COAST

Passionfruit, hibiscus tea, and pomegranate on a delicate palate. A great Tuesday red.

LOLA is sourced from two cool climate vineyard sites in emerging growing regions for Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir. The first is situated in the eastern portion of the Petaluma Gap in the heart of the windy corridor and the second is a well-known site in Fort Ross Seaview.

THE 2018 VINTAGE may turn out to be the vintage of the decade. A long, cool growing season brought us beautifully clean fruit full of vibrancy, energy, and great depth of character. The magic of this vintage found during harvest will continue to beguile us for years to come.

EHREN JORDAN is a true vigneron with decades of combined experience in cellars and vineyards from the Rhône Valley to Paso Robles, Sonoma County to the Willamette Valley. Obsessive hands-on farming practices and minimalist hands- off winemaking allow site, variety, and vintage to be the true navigator of each expression.
