We SOLD OUT on our first Marathon, but the Operatives on the live stream spoke and we listened. The rest of the day we have MICA!

Mission Codename Bay Dreaming

We adore this delicious Pinot Noir and we are thrilled to offer it to you with our boldest recommendation. There is very little of this wine left in the marketplace and we were able to get our hands on a goodly number of bottles. That said, though, it is selling very quickly…

“With notes of bing cherry, raspberry, stewed tomato, tomato paste, fresh fava bean, root beer, and sarsaparilla, this Pinot Noir is varietally spot-on. It is also totally unique and deliciously different as it has a smoldering, meaty quality as well as an earthiness found more often in the French versions, from Burgundy. I love the fine-grained tannins which do ramp a bit towards the finish. This is a great wine to aerate first, either by splashing it into a carafe, or better yet swirling it softly in a big bowl-shaped glass. It is ideal for serving with dishes like duck breast, pork roast, or a starter of wild mushroom and Burrata bruschetta.” - 94 points - Catherine Fallis, Master Sommelier, Planet Grape
