Pinot Noir 2020
The vast majority of the fruit in our Pinot Noir is sourced from organically farmed vineyards in Mendocino County, including estate sites McNab Ranch and Butler Ranch.
This elegant Pinot Noir opens with bright fruit aromas of cherry and pomegranate, framed by earthy undertones of Earl Grey tea, mushroom and white pepper. Light-bodied and refined, the palate balances subtle tannins with vibrant acidity, accented by a long, generous finish.
I’m really humbled by the following of our Pinot Noir. We sell out every year, which keeps a healthy amount of pressure on Jeff and I to continue making great wine! We really try to exercise restraint with this Pinot – an elegant wine is always the objective. This is a really versatile red wine. It’s really enjoyable on its own but it also compliments a wide array of dishes because it doesn’t compete with flavors.

Tasting Panel, June 2021 Issue
Crafted with certified-organic grapes and aged 12 months in French and American oak, this red opens up with richness defined by notes of vanilla and coffee dappled with strawberry and white pepper. Silky, with a hint of spiced tobacco, a swath of licorice, and a touch of bergamot, it leaves behind a generous, lasting finish.
