Vintage 2021 will be remembered for the extreme drought conditions and the luxurious, ultra-concentrated wines that ensued. There are two new vineyard sources featured in the 2021. The first, a dry-farmed, hillside vineyard located at the western headwaters of the Russian River Valley gives a powerful mid-palate structure that tastes like $50 Pinot Noir. The other, on the far Mendo coast facing the Albion Wind Gap delivers that electric blue-fruited wine only found near the ocean. These two exciting sites were blended with our now perennial site in the Potter Valley, making for a complex version of this wine with increased amplitude. This one punches above its weight class. Enjoy it!
