Russian River Valley, Sonoma, CA- Aromas of raspberries and strawberries with hints of violets and spice. Lighter in style, the acidity frames it nicely. Well integrated tannins lead to a long, silky smooth finish.

The Estate

Throughout the 1980’s the entire family would harvest the half acre of grapes and my father and I would make the wine; filling two barrels, which equaled 50 cases of wine.

Wine Making

All pinot noir is stainless steel fermented after a 5-7 day cold soak with punchdowns 3 times daily. Whole clusters are employed in only a few tanks at 5%. Barrels are 60% new Francois Freres and the remainder 1 year old. The wine is aged in barrel for 12 months and settled in tank for 2 months.

Food Suggestions

Pairs well with veal, pork, poultry, and mushroom based dishes.
