2022 Merry Edwards Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir – Multi 90+ Scores

Merry Edwards Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir 2022
Experience the acclaimed elegance of Merry Edwards’ Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir – a 93-point masterpiece celebrated by James Suckling and Jeb Dunnuck. Crafted in California’s fog-cooled coastal vineyards, this vintage unveils layered aromas of spiced cherries, wild blueberries, and crushed rose petals lifted by fresh mint undertones.

Silky tannins frame a beautifully balanced palate where ripe red berries and black plum intertwine with earthy pine forest notes and savory cedar spice. Aged 10 months in French oak (20% new), it delivers a medium-to-full-bodied texture with vibrant acidity – perfect for immediate enjoyment or graceful cellaring over the next decade.

Critics highlight its food-friendly versatility: pair with herb-roasted poultry or mushroom risotto to elevate its bright fruit core and mineral finish (14.5% alc). Discover why Wine Enthusiast praises its “smooth texture” while Decanter notes its “crunchy red fruits laced with ironstone minerals.”

This terroir-driven Pinot Noir captures Sonoma’s coastal essence – a sophisticated choice for collectors and enthusiasts seeking complexity without compromise.
