RED BIRDS
PINOT NOIR
SONOMA COAST 2022
Roger Roessler’s passion for wine began as a restaurateur, opening restaurants throughout the Western United States for over 40 years. Growing up in Columbia, Illinois, he cherished fond memories of the abundant “red birds” thriving in his hometown. When presented with the opportunity to produce Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir, he aimed to create a wine with vibrant red fruit characteristics, paying homage to his childhood feathered friends.
Under the Roessler and Black Pine labels, Roger has produced several award-winning Pinots. His small production, Red Birds Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir, delivers the quality one would expect from him at a value price.
The 2022 growing season was excellent for the Sonoma Coast, with some summer heat countered by coastal cooling influences that helped concentrate flavors and aromas in the fruit, leading to an excellent vintage for Pinot Noir.

“The 2022 Red Birds Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir begins with a bright and inviting nose with aromas of cranberries, red cherries, violets, and nutmeg dancing out of the glass. The wine is medium-bodied on the palate with penetrating sweet/tart raspberries, red currants, and cola flavors. An excellent combination of lush richness and freshness keeps it lively and balanced, even for a riper-styled Pinot Noir. The wine’s acidity is bright and refreshing, and the soft, velvety tannins lead to a long finish with lingering notes of red fruits and spice.”
