Le Duc Noir Reviews

The 2018 Pinot Noir Le Duc Noir has a Burgundian vibe as well as classy leather, red fruit, and dried flower-like aromas and flavors. It’s medium-bodied, elegant, and silky on the palate, with lots of character. This cuvée comes from a handful of sites on the Sonoma Coast and was brought up in 15% new French oak.

Medium ruby-purple colored, the 2018 Le Duc Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir jumps from the glass with rambunctious Bing cherries, black raspberries and fragrant earth notions plus wafts of lavender and roses. Medium-bodied, the palate is refreshing, elegant and beautifully perfumed with soft tannins and a good, long, zippy finish. -Lisa Perrotti-Brown
