Summer Dreams “Stargazing” Pinot Noir, Sonoma Coast 2023 750ml +14%

Summer Dreams is the Sonoma Coast label from Jayson and Helen Woodbridge, alongside Hundred Acre and Fortunate Son. It is a Burgundy-style négociant model, moving toward a domaine. Stargazing was one of the first wines of the label, named for Jayson’s love of summer stargazing.

VINTAGE NOTES

2023 brought stability during the growing season with consistent

temperatures, even canopy growth, and near perfect fruit set, which

allowed us to pick on the ultimate flavor profile. Mother nature

kept the heat at bay coming into harvest which meant the flavors

just continued to deepen and develop. The 2023 vintage is truly

spectacular — elegant, poised, and stylish.

VINEYARD NOTES

Sourced from the “Vulcan Ridge,” Summer Dreams Wine Estate and

Annapolis vineyards ranging from 900-1900’ above sea level. A

rare, fine-grained sandy loam, Goldridge soils are known for

excellent drainage, and a characteristically light and fluffy texture.

The coastal climate of the region is marked by warm, dry summers

and cool, damp winters.

Wine Notes

Fresh with notes of raspberry,

cherry, and violets wrapped around hints of white pepper,

sarsaparilla, and lightly toasted oak. This wine is vibrant and

exceedingly versatile with a light, clean finish that leaves you

wanting more.
