Palate
The daily appearance of gusty winds causes a cool-climate environment, which creates smaller berries with thicker skins. The end result is a richer, concentrated Pinot Noir, loaded with flavors of red and blue fruit alongside savory spice notes
Growing Conditions
Established in 2018, the Petaluma Gap AVA is impacted by an 18-mile opening in the California coastal range, located between Sonoma and Marin Counties. This low elevation gap acts as a causeway for marine wind and fog to charge inland from the Pacific Ocean, and eventually empty into the San Pablo Bay.
Aging
Aged 10 months in 98% French oak (30% new)
