Wine Profile

Production Notes

Varietal Composition: 100% estate Pinot Noir. A master blend of the most inspiring lots from each estate vineyard; 36 specific barrels selected to showcase the terroir.

Winemaker Notes

Refined and expressive, this Pinot Noir opens with aromas of pennyroyal, crushed violets, anise, and hints of hop flower and Luxardo cherry. The structured palate delivers polished tannins and a smooth texture, revealing black cherry, black currant, blood orange, and a touch of Ceylon tea on the elegant finish.

Production

After ample winter rains replenished the soils, a cold spring delayed budbreak and set the stage for a long, slow growing season. With cooler temperatures into the summer months, full veraison was delayed until early August. We began harvesting our sparkling grapes on September 8th, with our still wine picks commencing on September 27th and concluding on October 30th. Though one of the coolest vintages in memory, even at lower sugar levels, our 2023 grapes showed exceptional color and concentration. As a result, 2023 looks to be one of the finest Anderson Valley vintages ever, offering wines with beautiful structure, refined tannins and a distinctive elegance.
