Nose

Strawberry fruit, spice and floral notes are just the beginning.

Palate

Bold, dark cherry rides consistently on the palate with very balanced tannins that give an almost white pepper component to the wine. Great, subtle acidity is balanced by smooth vanilla and baking spice.

Growing Conditions

Known as “The Land of Promise”, Terra de Promissio has an ideal terroir for pinot noir. The soil, southwest sun exposure, hill elevation, vine density and the wind and fog of the Petaluma Gap allow the grapes to have a slow maturation & extended hang time, which allows optimum ripeness ideal conditions for the pinot noir grape.
