TASTING NOTES

By nose: Burnt orange peel, roasting herbs and preserved plums. By mouth: Soft tannins, a complex mix of fresh berries and dried and preserved fruit, with some anise and cassis.

VINEYARD NOTES

The Home Vineyard Block is three acres, facing east and planted to the Calera clone.

WINEMAKER NOTES

The color is deeper and more intense than our other Pinot Noirs from the same vintage, maybe due to its eastern facing slope.
