A number of our Belle Glos and Boen buyers were astonished that Charlie Wagner could offer a similarly rich, dark and appealing Pinot (and perhaps even finer) at SUCH a low price.
Canadian wine writer Natalie Maclean agrees, rating this “Outstanding,” (and equal to the great 2018 Belle Glos Clark & Telephone Pinot Noir!), saying:
Sea Sun 2019 Pinot Noir is produced by Charlie Wagner from wine grapes sourced from California's cool-climate coastal vineyards The Wagners come from a long line of Napa Valley wine grape growers and winemakers dating back to the 1850s. They're also the family who produce the coveted Caymus wines. Look for ripe cherry, plum, red berry compote, vanilla, flinty and toasty oak spice flavours vibrant on the palate. Tannins are fine-grained, giving a silky mouth-feel. Drink or hold. Drink: 2022-2025.
