Varietal Composition: 100% Pinot Noir

Winemaker Notes

Robust and complex, this Pinot Noir opens with rustic aromas of plum, raspberry and pecan, layered with earthy and herbal tones. The palate reveals structured tannins and elegant acidity, with dark berry flavors and a lingering finish that is both bright and balanced.

Production

The 2023 growing season began with a long, wet winter and an early spring that led to a late bud break throughout the Central Coast. While moderate spring weather ensured a near-ideal bloom, the vines ripened slowly as the mild temperatures continued into summer. In a typical year, we would begin our Central Coast harvest in early September, but in 2023, our first pick was on October 5th. Fortunately, October brought beautiful sunny days in the upper 70s, ensuring excellent ripeness and a perfect balance between acid and Brix without dehydration.
