What to Expect

California has long struggled with Pinot Noir. Finding the right vineyards for this most fickle of grape, one that enjoys a cool growing season yet needs warmth close to harvest to fully ripen, has proven a challenge in such a sunny state. Cooler areas eventually became identified; the Santa Rita Hills, Russian River Valley and Mendocino's Anderson valley are all prime spots for Pinot Noir in California. Unlike the lighter colored and sometimes delicate Pinots of Burgundy, California produces many rich, deep Pinots full of slightly chewy dark berry and cherry fruits with hints of cola, Asian spices and forest floor frequently adding complexity.

Pinot Noir is a delicate and sometimes difficult wine to produce successfully. To fully capture the unique character of this varietal, we use time-honored Burgundian techniques of small tank fermentation and aging in heavily toasted oak. This technique preserves the smooth, rich texture and subtle varietal flavors of the grape, producing the aromas of crushed rose petals and rich cherry characteristic of fine Pinot Noir. Discover the perfect Pinot pairing…serve this wine with grilled salmon.
