  • 2021 Brewer-Clifton Perilune Pinot Noir
    Sta. Rita Hills
    Expand
    Comprised of a vast array of elevation, aspect, and soil profiles, Perilune is by far and away the most ambitiously complex of all our vineyards. From beach sand to botella clay, the rugged terrain and dramatic inclines offer a myriad of opportunities for dynamic fruit expression. Mindful clonal selection of equal parts clone 37 and 667 and bespoke for each of the forty-two unique blocks further amplifies the diversity of this south-facing parcel, which has swiftly become the predominant core of our wines.
    Suggested Retail Price: $85

Description

Founded in 1996, Brewer-Clifton is known for refined Sta. Rita Hills Chardonnays and Pinot Noirs - all raised in neutral barrels with whole cluster fermentation. Brewer-Clifton wines are a reflection of the geographic, geologic and climatic uniqueness of California’s Sta. Rita Hills appellation in Santa Barbara County. Within this appellation, each vineyard carries its own imprint. Founder and Winemaker Greg Brewer has spent the entirety of his three-decade career dedicated to crafting cool-climate Chardonnay and Pinot Noir from this finite stretch of land.

“At Brewer-Clifton, it is our primary goal and priority to deliver the essence of that vineyard as clearly and honestly as possible. Our mission and indeed our passion is to present wines that convey the characteristics inherent to each of these sites, with uncompromising quality.” - Founder & Winemaker, Greg Brewer
