The Jacob Pinot Noir is estate grown fruit from the East Block of our vineyard, where the sun's early ray's play a role in ripening and flavors. The clones planted are Dijon 777, 115, and 114 on rootstock 101-14. Generally bigger in style with toasty robust dark fruit component. Barrel aged on the lees in 50% new French oak.
Sensory Notes: The growing season was a little warmer than 2005 and there was no rain at harvest, letting us pick the perfect harvest date. Black cherry, blackberry, rich and toasty.

Rachel Estate Pinot Noir |
The Rachel Pinot Noir is estate grown fruit from our West Block where the afternoon sun and high winds play a role in ripening and flavors. The clones planted are Pommard, and Dijon 667 and 114 on rootstocks 101-14 and 44-53. Very floral and lighter, more burgundian in style, with earthy tones.

Cherry and floral, with some spice mixed in, the Rachel is a little more feminine and very very pretty.

Bella Chardonnay |
The Bella Chardonnay is fruit we purchase from other great growers until we can plant our own vines, hopefully in the near future. Aged in a combination of stainless and French oak we stir the wine and lees twice weekly, giving it great body and aromas.
2006 - 60 Cases Produced Sensory Notes: Rich with a lot of body. This wine did not go through secondary fermentation maintaining its natural acidity. Intense pear and floral aromatics on a long finish. Alcohol: 13.8% Release Date: September 2007 Price $25 /bottle
