Our 2008 Signature Series Pinot Noir from Sanchietti Vineyard in Green Valley is lithe and gently voluptuous. Bold for a Pinot Noir, yet layered in earthy flavors, resulting in exotic spices and high tannins.
Green Valley is a microcosm of American Burgundy, known for its exceptional Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Sanchietti Vineyard itself is a famous, not only in Green Valley, but in the entire Russian River AVA, for its exceptional Pinot Noir fruit. Phrases like “exceptional intensity” and “exotic flavor profile” come from reviewers of Sanchietti fruit who acknowledge its greatness. Deep garnet, the glass holds aromas of blackberry, black cherry and black plum with toasty oak notes, followed by juicy black stone fruits, blackberries and spiced smoky oak on the palate.
