Central Coast
Varieties
Pinot Noir
Viticulture
The Central Coast Pinot Noir is largely a blend of Mission Ranch (Arroyo seco) and Cedar Lane (arroyo seco) with a bit of the Brosseau Vineyard (Chalone) and the Tom Ritchie Vineyard (Sonoma Coast). As always, the wine is largely Pommard Clone, but also 2A, and some Dijon 115 and 777 for fruit and jamminess.
Farming
Certified Sustainable
Vinification
The various lots were harvested in the 22 Brix range, and fermented whole berry. The primary fermentation was uninoculated and the Malolactic Fermentation was spontaneous. We did not rack keeping the wine on the lees with occasional batonage until bottling to round out the mouthfeel.
Aging
The wine was aged in 2-6 year old French oak barrels for 9 months.

Tasting Note
The wine is elegant and lean per normal, but quintessentially California pinot noir with ethereal fruit and spice. Always a go-to choice to serve with almost any food, fun to drink, and not budget busting.
