Ultraviolet Wines

J. Christopher

Sandra Adele Pinot Noir 2012

Lively fruit that invites us to linger with the earthy Chambertin-ish scents of red soil. Dark, seductive, midnight flavors chasing ultraviolet moonbeams of tensile strength. Very, very pretty in this youth; cannot imagine how much better it will show as it ages beautifully. Jay's mom has a marvelous wine in her honor! — 9 years ago

When Jay Sommers wanted to name one of his wines after his mother Sandra, he first proposed one of his chardonnays. "Oh no," said she. "One of your pinots should bear my name." So Jay selected one made from his very best grapes, including the coveted Charlie's vineyard. Deep, sultry, uplifting.
