2011 Failla Pinot Noir Sonoma Coast

We had this 2011 Failla Pinot Noir Sonoma Coast with roast elk, potatoes and shiitake mushrooms. We purchased this bottle of Failla from the same place that we were able to find the 2008 Brewer Clifton Pinot Noir. What a lucky day that was!
We first heard about Failla wines and winemaker Ehren Jordan from Greg and Linda Pearl of Pearlessence Vineyards. The wine was clear and burgundy in color and reminded me of the cool climate Pinot noirs of Prince Edward County. To me, it tasted like sour cherries that are baked in a pie with good acidity and was the perfect compliment to our dinner.
