Pinot Noir
RSM Estate Vineyard, Anderson Valley

The RSM vineyard has been farmed and certified organic since 2017. A warm spring resulted in early bud break and an early harvest. Yields were light after successive years of drought. This offering is a blend of Dijon clones 115, 667 and Pommard. Warm and inviting aromas of pie crust, cherries, cream, resinous pine, and damp redwood forest floor. Flavors of ripe cherries, huckleberry, cola, caramel, and mushroom broth, finishing with hints of nutmeg. This medium bodied wine is round on the palate with well-integrated bright acidity and fine cocoa tannins. Aged for 10 months in all French oak barrels (33% new).
