ADD TO CART
Named after our cherished growing region, Green Valley—celebrated as the coolest, foggiest part of the Russian River Valley—this Pinot Noir is a blend of four distinct estate blocks. Vibrant, high-toned fruit shines at the forefront, while layers of earthiness add depth and intrigue. The palate is beautifully textured, offering a silky-smooth elegance that lingers long after each sip. 93 points rated by Wine Enthusiast Magazine.
Juicy and forward in feel here, with friendly cherry and raspberry coulis notes laced with hints of light red licorice and vanilla the finish. A latent juiciness adds length. Crowd pleaser. Drink now through 2026.
Thick and concentrated in cranberry, strawberry and cedar, this wine offers strong tannin presence and structure amidst a grittiness of crushed rock. The finish delivers plenty of forest-floor intensity.
TASTING NOTES
The nose is warm and inviting, with notes of toasted oak, stewed plums, and a whisper of spice. On the palate, juicy blackberries and ripe plum take center stage, supported by velvety yet well-structured tannins that create a lingering, elegant finish.
VINEYARD NOTES
Hand picked from Winery blocks 2 and 4 (Pommard 5), block H-5 (clone 828), and block P-6 (clone 13, Thomas Road) the grapes are de-stemmed into small open-top half ton macro bin fermenters or into stainless steel tanks where they are cold-soaked (using dry ice) for four to seven days. Before fermentation is complete, the new wine is gently pressed from the skins and transferred to French oak barrels. Fermentation then goes to completion in the barrels, allowing us to stir the lees as the wine goes through malolactic fermentation.
Wild caught king salmon from right off the coast at Bodega Bay is a classic Sonoma County dish, which naturally pairs with our cool climate Chardonnays. Also, fun to try with Pinot Noir. But, why choose? For a group of four of more, likely to drink more than one bottle, who says it has to be the same wine?
