"The Corners"
Our estate vineyard lies on the west end of
Anderson Valley, near the town of Boonville.
The Vineyard
Planted on hillside slopes with gravelly clay soils
and southern exposures
Warm Afternoon Sun
Fully ripens grapes, while cool breezes from the
Pacific Ocean—only 12 miles away—
extends the growing season
This nuanced wine reveals fresh aromas of plum, loamy earth and the pennyroyal mint that grows wild in the vineyard. The palate is smooth and supple, with toasted spice notes bringing complexity and grip. The vivid, lingering finish is laced with a delicate mineral hint of iron.

A unique vineyard from 'The Corner' of Anderson Valley. This site is considered to be special due to the steep hillsides, aspect, and light gravelly soils that combine to create optimal ripening conditions. This very rugged vineyard continuously produces fruit of great depth and character. Our 'Corners" Pinot Noir is typically sourced from the upper elevation blocks (pommard clone) , where small vines and berries produce a concentrated and opulent wine.
