100% Pinot Noir; Cooperage: 100% French Oak Burgundy-style barrels (228 liters), 60% New, 20% Second, 20% Neutral; Medium plus toast: Allier, Vosges and Tronçais Forests
Combining the lush fruit of our warmer estate vineyards with the rustic elegance of grapes from the cooler “deep end” of the valley, this wine offers a beautifully complete expression of Anderson Valley Pinot Noir. On the palate, lively flavors of wild strawberry and cherry are in perfect harmony, with terroir-driven hints of saddle leather, anise, pennyroyal and wild mushrooms, as well as notes of confectionary spices and vanilla from aging in the finest French oak.
