Who makes it?

Since its establishment in 1985, Decoy has built a reputation for crafting exceptional wines that offer remarkable value. With a heritage rooted in Sonoma County's renowned Alexander Valley, Decoy sources grapes from their own esteemed Ridgeline and Brownell estate vineyards, among other distinguished sites. The acclaimed Winemaker Dana Epperson, celebrated for her expertise across diverse grape varieties and regions, steers Decoy's winemaking philosophy. The comprehensive Decoy collection includes popular varietals like Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Chardonnay, alongside a vibrant Rosé and elegant Brut Cuvée. In 2020, Decoy further elevated its offering with Decoy Limited, an exclusive range of small-batch wines from California's most prestigious wine regions, showcasing the pinnacle of their craft.
How is it made?

This exquisite 2023 Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir is a testament to Decoy's dedication to quality winemaking. The growing season began with a cool, wet winter, followed by a moderate spring that artfully delayed budbreak and bloom, setting the stage for a unique harvest. Our team meticulously picked grapes from mid-September, moving steadily through the vineyards, with warm spells perfectly guiding the fruit to optimal ripeness. Careful vineyard practices, including strategic leafing and thoughtful crop adjustments, were paramount in crafting this remarkable Pinot Noir. Aged for 11 months in 100% French oak barrels (40% new, 60% neutral), this wine exemplifies the nuanced balance and depth that discerning palates seek in a premium Pinot Noir.
What does it taste like?

Pouring a glass of the 2023 Decoy Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir reveals an inviting bouquet of bright cranberry and raspberry aromas, beautifully complemented by subtle earthy undertones. The palate offers a delightful harmony of elegant oak spice and refreshing acidity, leading to a lingering finish graced with rich cherry and cranberry flavors. With an alcohol content of 14.20%, an acidity of 0.52 g/100 mL, and a pH of 3.71, this Pinot Noir is perfectly balanced. Whether you're enjoying a relaxed movie night with friends or pairing it with a delectable roasted chicken, this versatile Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir is sure to elevate any occasion.
