Flowers Vineyard & Winery
Sea View Ridge Pinot Noir
Green Valley, Sonoma County, California, USA
Flowers – Pinot Noir – 2023
Sea View Ridge – Sonoma Coast (Fort Ross–Seaview), California 🇺🇸
Overview
The pinnacle of the Flowers portfolio, Sea View Ridge is a pure and breathtaking expression of the far Sonoma Coast. Farmed and vinified from their dramatic estate vineyard overlooking the Pacific, this 2023 bottling captures the harmony, balance, and energetic freshness that define some of the most exhilarating Pinot Noirs in California.
Aromas & Flavors
Bright cherry, pomegranate, wild berries, rose petal, and a whisper of coastal herbs. Subtle forest floor and mineral lift add depth without overshadowing the purity of fruit.
Mouthfeel
Elegant, vibrant, and perfectly weighted. Silky tannins guide a precise, flowing texture, while the natural acidity keeps everything lifted. The finish lingers gracefully on the back palate—longer, deeper, and more resonant than the regional cuvées.
Food Pairings
Wild mushroom risotto, herb-roast chicken, grilled salmon, duck confit, or alpine cheeses like Comté and Gruyère.
Verdict
A masterclass in coastal Pinot Noir. Seamless balance, coastal tension, and expressive clarity make this the crown jewel of Flowers’ lineup. For any true Pinot lover, this is an essential benchmark of the Sonoma Coast.
Did You Know?
Sea View Ridge sits more than 1,400 ft. above sea level, planted directly on wind-exposed coastal ridgelines. These extreme conditions yield naturally small berries with intense flavor concentration, one reason the wine shows such purity, brightness, and length.
