2005 Pinot Noir
Willamette Valley

Our passion for the Pinot Noir grape extends northward to Oregonâ€™s Willamette Valley, where we seek an inspiring contrast to our Pinot Noir bottlings from Californiaâ€™s Santa Ri ...moreta Hills. The 2005 vintage hails equally from Temperance Hill Vineyard in the Eola Hills and Parish Hill Vineyard in the Red Hills of Dundee. The result is a pure and complex expression of Oregon Pinot Noir.

2004 Cliff Lede Pinot Noir
Napa Valley

The 2004 Cliff Lede Pinot Noir flaunts aromas of fraises des bois, coriander, black tea, and enticing light toffee notes. This medium-bodied wine features a high-toned entry, cramm ...moreed with flavors of persimmon, berries, and plums, which transcends into a glycerol-filled finish that lingers with just the finest and slightest of tannins. Sourced mostly from the famed Hudson Vineyard, this wine is a wonderful expression of one of the finest terroirs in the Carneros Appellation.

2005 Pinot Noir
Sonoma Valley

The 2005 Estate Pinot Noir is a nice counterpoint to our 2004. We were able to ripen our small crop slowly and evenly, experiencing our longest hangtime per pound produced in the R ...moreanch's history. This wine has a medium-plus color with a touch more black fruit than in years past. The aromatics have the now traditional high-toned red and orange fruits plus blackberries, cloves and cinnamon. Palate-wise, the berry/cherry combination shows through immediately, uninterrupted by oak or tannin.

2004 Pinot Noir
Sonoma Coast

The 2004 Sonoma Coast comes from a single site in the far west corner of Sebastopol. Though heat defined most of the 2004 vintage, this site benefited tremendously from its colder, ...more foggier nature and northwest exposure. A mix of red and black fruits with the classic coastal cola/forest floor aromatics, this wine has really blossomed with an extrea year in bottle. The palate is crushed raspberries, cranberries and molasses with baking spice notes and acidity fleshing out the finish.

2006 Branciforte Ridge Pinot Noir, Santa Cruz Mountains
Branciforte Ridge, Santa Cruz Mountains

Being in a cool climate, ocean-influenced mountain appellation, we could no longer resist the temptation of making a Pinot Noir. The 2006 Branciforte Ridge is, we believe, a classi ...morec example of Santa Cruz Mountain Pinot Noir (which have been made here since the 60s) with fruit, structure, mouthfeel and a long finish woven into one sustained, harmonious whole. We harvested at an ideal ripeness with balanced tannins and acidity that the mountain climate promotes. Bright cherry, raspberry and even some cherry blossom come through on the nose, and are supported in the mouth by a firm foundation of minerality, crushed rocks and redwoods. For a delicate and subtle wine, there is a substantial body and mouthfeel. Silky tannins and firm acidity play strongly on the mid-palate and carry a the beam of that bright red fruit through to a long, lingering finish. This wine has evolved substantially during barrel aging and will surely continue to do so for some time yet in the bottle. Enjoyable now, it will further integrate and develop with several years in your cellar.

2006 Grand Detour Pinot Noir
Sonoma Coast

The 2006 Grand Detour Pinot Noir is a blend of five Sonoma Coast vineyards: Kanzler, Keller Estate, Flocchini, Gap's Crown and Armagh. There is also some fruit from the Solomon Hil ...morels Vineyard in Santa Barbara. The result is a wine that exhibits great typicity and elegant balance. The cool growing season in 2006 and the extremely late harvest produced a wine with strong notes of raspberry and strawberry. It was aged in 33% new oak for ten months. This is an elegant, classic Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir. This wine will pair well with game, duck and salmon as well as mushroom accented dishes.

2005 Pinot Noir 'Reserve'

The wine is the embodiment of classic Pinot Noir. Dominated by notes of sweet cherry, strawberry, and subtle spice, the aromas are both broad and deep. The palate echoes the aromas ...more, building to a rich mid-palate, and a lingering finish of cherry and spice. The fruit is nicely balanced with the acidity and tannins, making this wine equally enjoyable with or without food.
