THE VINEYARDS

Our 2008 pinot noir vintage is a blend of two vineyards, one from the Russian River appellation and one from the Sonoma Coast. The 2008 vintage produced grapes of exceptional ripeness that resulted in wines that were full bodied with very fruit forward characteristics. Using handcrafted, small vineyards allows us to produce a pinot with an exceptional level of quality.

TASTING NOTES

This wine is dark ruby in color with aromas of dark cherry and smoked meats. The wine is full bodied and well extracted resulting in a rich middle body, followed by a firm and persistent finish. The flavors duplicate the aromas of fruit and smoke. The wine is unfined and unfiltered.
