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.
47 cases produced. BLEND 8 pulls from blocks 1 & 7, although uniquely distinct plantings, there are some commonalities that thread together to make for a seamless Pinot Noir. Both blocks favor red fruit dominance, crafting a wine that leads with red currant and raspberry aromatics and flavors. Similarly, both blocks retain natural acidity very well, lending liveliness on the palate that carries flavors to a long-lasting finish. Block 7 was whole cluster fermented, adding texture, body and subtle spice. Cellared for 12 months in once-filled French oak, offering support while still keeping the fruit on the forefront.
