Aromas of red cherry and plum with hints of white pepper and pine needles. The palate brings red fruits, forest floor and baking spices to a classic, balanced Russian River Pinot Noir.

Sourced from the last vineyard in the Deep End of the valley, our blocks of selection massal clone pinot are planted meter by meter and farmed organically. The cold Deep End climate and low vigor soils produce small amounts of concentrated aromatic wine with dark red fruit and balanced with vibrant acidity.

Made by world-class winemaker Dan Goldfield, this wine presents floral, fruit and earth flavors, with a decadent texture and rich acidity. A partnership between two friends, sports commentator Jim Nantz and wine entrepreneur Peter Deutsch.

This exquisite wine opens with an intense bouquet of floral aromatics, including hints of dried savory herbs and violets, providing a captivating sensory experience from the first sip. The wine's balanced acid and tannin structure create a velvety texture on the palate, while the jammy boysenberry, baking spice, and sour cherry notes add layers of complexity and richness to the flavor profile. The wine finishes with a sophisticated and lasting impression, leaving a remarkable taste that will linger on your palate.

Sanford Sanford & Benedict Vineyard Pinot Noir is exclusively sourced from this historic vineyard in the esteemed Santa Rita Hills AVA. Thirty-five year old vines planted on their own roots give great intensity and complexity. The wine is deep red in color and is loaded with vibrant raspberry, cherry and plum fruit with a hint of rose petal and white pepper on the nose. The palate delivers bright cherry flavors framed nicely by bright acidity and supple tannins.

The 2021 Rita Hills Pinot Noir is a wine of elegance and precision. Exotic, vibrant red fruits and dried flower aromas inform the palate that is vivid and very attractive. This will pair better with light or heartier dishes and although charming now, it will continue to improve over several years.
