Dried flowers, subtle spice, forest floor and a delicate suggestion of sea air add complexity, reflecting the vineyard’s coastal setting.\n\nOn the palate, it is silky and refined, with a juicy core of red and dark fruit supported by vibrant acidity and finely judged tannins. Notes of spice, tea leaves and floral nuances emerge through the long, balanced finish. The 2012 vintage is mature and expressive now, while its freshness, structure and concentration suggest that it can continue to develop in the bottle for several more years when well stored.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLand’s Edge is sourced from a cool, ocean-influenced site on the Sonoma Coast, where maritime winds and coastal conditions help Pinot Noir retain acidity and aromatic precision while developing impressive concentration.
