Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir

2006 Flowers Pinot Noir - Sonoma Coast, California
If people are in the mood for iced tea, tell them you have Flowers and they may reconsider. With dark cherry, raspberry, teaberry and leather nuances how can the vane say no? The tannins are soft and the wine is concentrated. When people have a bottle of this to show to the rest of the restaurant, they feel rich and classy, kind of like Ron Burgundy. Last tasted 2007 Drink now-2011 

Wine and Waves

Wine and Waves
I'm lucky to be a 31-year-old surf punk that gets to sample rare wines like the 1922 Pol Roger, the 1959 Petrus and the 2001 D.R.C. Richebourg--that doesn't mean those wines are always good, or worth the price. Since I've worked as a sommelier (in Monterey, CA) for high-end restaurants like Casanova, the Sardine Factory, and Marinus, I've honed my palate and I can choose a good bottle that won't break the bank. When I have enough time and money, I like to travel with my girl Lindsay Jackson to places with great wine and waves. I'm a certified sommelier (Court of Master Sommeliers) and am available to drink wine. Call: 831-521-8606 or e-mail: pwetterau@gmail.com
