Aromas of dried cherries, rose and magnolia are interwoven with light vanilla coffee and hints of pine needle and resin. Juicy concentrated strawberry and cherry compote flavors on the front palate are balanced by a weightier yet elegant mid-palate. Hints of vanilla bean pannacotta leads to a lingering, mouthwatering finish with bright coastal acidity.
The Cusp fully embraces the tension between Russian River fog and Sonoma sunshine. A proudly new-world Pinot, with a full, round body, packed with concentrated dark fruit, but beautifully balanced and unexpectedly complex.
Wine Spectator Review:
Juicy and friendly, with tasty, up-front plum and black cherry fruit lined with hints of potpourri and rose petal through the juicy finish. Reveals a spine of subtle singed wood. Drink now through 2029. 1,541 cases made.
