Tasting notes
This wine opens with fresh raspberry, cherry cola, and cranberry aromas layered over subtle notes of rose petal, sandalwood, and baking spice. On the palate, it is medium-bodied with
lively acidity, offering a juicy, mouthwatering texture and a clean, refreshing finish. The wine balances vibrant red fruit with elegant structure, making it both approachable and
food-friendly.
Vineyard
The Russian River Valley is a benchmark appellation for cool-climate Chardonnay and Pinot Noir in California. Its proximity to the Pacific Ocean, consistent morning fog, and well-drained Goldridge soils make it ideal for producing wines with freshness, texture, and site expression. Our owner, Steve Dutton, is part of a family-farming legacy that dates back six generations and has helped define this region’s style over the past several decades, farming iconic Pinot Noir vineyards from their Green Valley home and beyond. This wine is meant to highlight the best, typicity and approachability of the Russian River Valley offering both stylistic flexibility and strong value. Designed with by-the-glass programs in mind, this Pinot Noir delivers immediate charm and freshness with the serious pedigree of site and farming behind it.
