Penny Island Pinot Noir is sourced from the Russian River Valley appellation in Sonoma County, California, where cool Pacific Ocean fog and an extended growing season allow Pinot Noir grapes to develop exceptional complexity and depth. The 2023 vintage has earned 92 points from Decanter, making it a standout value at its Costco price point.

The wine opens with vibrant aromas of red raspberry and strawberry, leading into flavors of red cherry, earthy fig, and toasted oak spice. Notes of terroir and umami with a hint of iron minerality add further dimension, while cedar and sweet tobacco provide richness in the mid-palate. The texture is soft and silky, finishing gracefully with hints of rose petal and forest floor.

At 14% ABV with a convenient screwcap closure, this food-loving Pinot Noir pairs beautifully with hard cheeses, roasted duck, pheasant, and fresh salads. Produced by Penny Island Wines under the Sonoma Bespoke Beverages portfolio, this bottle is a Costco exclusive offering.
