Farmed, vinified & bottled by our family to yours. Our estate vineyard is 4.3 planted acres of Pinot Noir. Small, yes, but this allows our family to farm it exclusively- keeping diligent contact with every vine from bud break to harvest.

When it comes to our own vineyard, our goal is to produce the best possible wines we can, while capturing the site's own diversity & distinctiveness. Each year we will produce as many blends to meet these two fundamental requirements. And just as each vintage is different from year to year, each blend we create will be too, and therefore assigned its own individual number- forever cataloging the count of hopefully a long line of uniquely delicious Pinot Noirs for years to come.

86 cases produced. The counterpart to Blend 5, Blend 6 pulls from the exact opposite part of the vineyard, our southwestern blocks. The warmest and lowest elevation blocks house our Pommard & Wadenswil clones that are planted on Carlton soil. Year in and year out, we notice more savory and earthy flavors coming from this section of the vineyard, as well as firmer, more pronounced tannins that result in a wine with more body, weight and texture. 28% new French oak was chosen to match the wine's more robust structure, offering supportive flavors of toasted oak and baking spices. Likely the most cellar-worthy wine created this vintage, Blend 6 will continue to reward with age.

  • 43% Wadenswil (Carlton)
  • 43% Pommard (Carlton)
  • 14% Dijon 667 (Hazelair/Dupee)
