Grown at the rocky and windy crest of the vineyard, this wine communicates a sense of place more faithfully and more fortrightly than any wine we make. The vines destined for La So urce Pinot Noir come from Dijon clones rooted in shallow, rocky soils at the summit of Seven Springs. Strong ocean winds slow the ripening process and force the vines to push deeper into the earth. These challenging conditions yield fruit of the highest quality. Aromatic layers of black currant and bay laurel lead into a palate that begins with tart cherry and evolves into something deeper and more complex. A subtle, savory reduction adds intrigue, while fine, lithe tannins support the wine’s vitality and promise. Structured yet agile, this is a Pinot Noir built for longevity in bottle. Show more
