La Crema can always be counted upon to deliver value, but it’s especially true when it comes to Pinot Noir. The 2017 Sonoma Coast is modestly priced yet ranks very high on the satisfaction meter. This vintage is somewhat delicate and light in color, but there’s no skimping on flavor. Aromas of cherry and wood spice dominate, with modest tannins lingering in the background.
