USA : CALIFORNIA : ANDERSON VALLEYSUSTAINABLE : Pinot NoirMEDIUM-BODIED, RED CHERRY, RASPBERRY, ROSE PETAL, SPICE, FRENCH OAKBlended from two estate vineyards, Annahala and Apple Barn, situated along Anderson Creek in Mendocino's Anderson Valley. Night-harvested from nine superior Pinot Noir clones, the 16 block lots ferment separately with native yeast before spending 13 months in 41% new French oak barrels.Anderson Valley's proximity to the Pacific keeps temperatures cool and growing seasons long. Annahala, closer to the coast, yields lighter, more delicate fruit; Apple Barn, with gravel-rich soils and warmer afternoons, contributes structure and dark berry depth. Together they make something the Valley does uniquely well: fresh, aromatic Pinot built for the table.PAIRINGS : Cedar-planked salmon the charred wood and silky texture match the wine's toasty oak and red fruit Coq au vin a classic pairing: the wine's cherry and bramble echo the braising liquid Roasted chicken with fresh herbs lighter meat with herbs plays to the wine's floral, earthy finish
