In the heart of the Petaluma Gap, cool evening air and fog from the Pacific cool down the Southernmost part of Sonoma. Well-draining, volcanic soils provide a terroir that makes for uniquely styled, bold pinot noir.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”WINEMAKING” tab_id=”1497942435768-a2771e4b-8863″][vc_column_text]The 2018 growing season began cooler than usual for Sonoma County, leading to longer bloom time for grapevines. Moderate summer temperatures with fewer heat spikes than previous vintages allowed for a relaxed pace, excellent development of flavors and retention of natural acidity. After the grapes were hand-picked, sorted and destemmed, they were cold soaked for three days prior to fermentation. Free run juice as a result of fermentation was transferred into 50% new French oak barrels and barrel-aged for 18 months with minimal racking prior to bottling.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”FOOD PAIRINGS” tab_id=”1497942617493-09f53e22-1d0f”][vc_column_text]Pair this complex pinot noir with earthy cheeses, roasted vegetables, grilled salmon, duck breast with cherry sauce, pork chops with rosemary or slow-roasted lamb.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][/vc_tta_tabs][/vc_column][/vc_row]
