2007 Pinot Noir

Buy WineTasting Notes

Mendocino County

MADE WITH ORGANICALLY GROWN GRAPES

The vineyards that produce this Pinot Noir are located on the remote, southwestern outskirts of the Mendocino National Forest. Here the soils are rich and deep, imparting flavors that hint at the nearby wilderness. Medium-bodied, this wine is a harmonious blend of flavors: wild berries, luscious cherries, and the spicy vanilla of toasted oak.

This wine is the unique expression of a carefully nurtured piece of land, made manifest in each bottle. We do without conventional pesticides and synthetic fertilizers, treating the soil as a living, lifegiving system. Our winegrowing practices create special wines, while sustaining our environment, the place where we live, and the people who live here.

Highly Recommended, California Grapevine

"There is a lot to like in this 2007 Mendocino Pinot Noir. First and foremost is the fact that this is a well balanced wine. This Pinot is loaded with flavor and quite true to its varietal. There are layers of elegant complexity that make this a nice wine to savor and contemplate over a long meal. This is a serious Pinot Noir. For around $30 this wine over delivers on this price point."
