William Hill Estate Winery Coastal Collection Pinot Noir Central Coast 750 ML

Baked cherry and hibiscus meet with an iron minerality on the nose of this bottling. It lands with a hearty presence on the palate, where dried sage and mint lift the earthy iron flavors.\n \n Producer Information\n William Hill Estate is located in the southern part of Napa Valley, right off the region's iconic Silverado Trail. It makes a wide range of wines though Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay are to the fore. The estate sits on 200 acres (80 hectares) of land in the southeast of the valley, on the Silverado Bench at the foor of Atlas Peak. Here a cooling influence from the San Pablo Bay promotes a long growing season. The rocky benchland soils have low fertility and cause the vines to struggle and produce small yields of highly concentrated fruit. They contrast with the rich sandy loams of the valley floor. Vineyard elevations and exposures vary, and some parcels of estate vines lie in more fertile lower areas. Each block is vinified separately. William Hill's flagship wine, Benchmark, is sourced from the best blocks in the estate vineyards. It is only made in small quantities – just over 200 cases a year. It is a blend based on Cabernet Sauvignon. Depending on the vintage, smaller amounts of Malbec, Merlot and Petit Verdot may also feature.
