The Anderson Valley AVA is considered by many to be one of the premier growing regions
for Pinot Noir in California and wines from the area exude unique characteristics. Located
near the cool influence of the Pacific Ocean, Anderson Valley offers a diverse range of
geography from the valley floor broken up by meandering rivers to mountains that rise to
over 1600 feet sitting above the fog line.
This Anderson Valley Pinot Noir is a blend of fruit from two of our estate vineyards. Maggy Hawk in the cool “deep end” of the valley is one of the last vineyards before the Pacific Ocean and benefits from the proximity to the maritime influence. Skycrest Vineyard is situated within the warmer Eastern section of the valley and sits at a much higher elevation. Both vineyard sites benefit from unique soils composed of weathered sandstone which moderates vine vigor and allow for excellent drainage. Clones for this wine include 115, 667, 777, and 828
