• 2021 Chimera

  Russian River

  Expand
  Chimera is one of my earliest wines, the name taken from Greek mythology... "a monster comprised of three different animals" as is depicted on the label. Originally blended from three vineyards back in 2001, it now primarily comes from the Middle Reach of Russian River where mildly warmer weather evokes rich and full flavors.

• 2021 Grays'

  Santa Lucia Highlands

  Expand
  Garys’ Vineyard is a highly acclaimed and storied site owned by two Garys; Franscioni and Pisoni. It was planted in the mid ‘90’s to the Pisoni clone of Pinot Noir in Santa Lucia Highlands Arroyo Seco sandy loam soil receiving 10-13 inches of rain a year. Steady Monterey Bay winds provide a long and steady growing season. With my first vintage of Garys’ in 1999 , I became dedicated to the quality of this special place and could sense its old-world beginnings and it’s ability to rival some of the great Burgundy “grand cru” sites.

• 2021 Widdoes

  Russian River

  Expand
  I've had access to Widdoes Vineyard for 28 years; named for its posthumous owner, Don Widdoes, and farmed by Dutton Ranch who planted Martini clone Pinot Noir in 1982. The soil is quintessential Russian River Goldridge fine sandy loam. Located just West of the little town of Graton, it is a magical location for pinot noir. The fog rolls in first and burns off late in this Green Valley sub-appellation. Dry farmed.
