Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

On the nose, the wine exhibits rich notes of plum, chokecherry, and cinnamon. As the wine unfolds it shows blood orange, bacon, ginseng, and anise balanced by silky tannins on the finish.

This elegant and well-balanced wine will be a good accompaniment to lamb, beef, salmon and mushroom accented dishes.

Professional Ratings

  • 91
    A wonderful Pinot Noir, this is nuanced and balanced, and so good it makes the price seem a relative bargain. It’s enormously rich in raspberries and cherries, yet brisk in acidity, and the oak aging adds a dimension of buttered toast.

Landmark Vineyards, California
Landmark Vineyards  Winery Image
Landmark Vineyards was founded in 1974 in Windsor, California. In 1989, Damaris Deere Ford, became sole proprietor and relocated the winery to Sonoma Valley. Ford is a descendant of John Deere, founder of the world's largest tractor manufacturer. Landmark Vineyards is located at the base of Sugarloaf Mountain in Sonoma Valley. In 1993, world-renowned consulting enologist Helen Turley was hired to work with former winemaker, Eric Stern. Landmark Vineyard's mission is "to make great wines that enhance the joy of life." Quality and flavor begin in the vineyards. In addition to the estate vineyard, Landmark sources grapes from a range of different vineyards and those selected are the finest in the highly diverse microclimates of Sonoma County's winegrowing regions.

The Sonoma Coast AVA is large in area but, not counting overlapping regions like Russian River Valley, only has a few thousand acres of grapevines—and it’s no wonder. Much of the region is rugged and not easily accessible. Its proximity to the Pacific Ocean’s fog and cool breezes limits the varieties that can be cultivated, but it proves to be an ideal environment for high quality Pinot Noir.

Since fog is a frequent fact of life here, as are heavy marine layers that sometimes bring rain, the best vineyards are wisely planted above the fog line, on picturesque ridges that capture enough sun to provide even ripening. That, with the overnight drop in temperature that reliably preserves acidity, results in fine expressions of Pinot Noir that often receive tremendous critic and consumer praise alike, and are often in high demand.
