Pale ruby, the 2021 Pinot Noir Cerise Vineyard has savory aromas of cranberry sauce, crushed cherries, tobacco and Earl Grey tea leaves, plus wafts of botanicals that unfurl as it spends time in the glass. The palate is full-bodied and powerful, its layered fruits supported by loads of chalky tannins and refreshing acidity, and it has a long, spicy finish. Recently bottled, it will have more to give in another year or two. 414 cases were made.

The 2019 Pinot Noir Cerise Vineyard comes from vines planted in 1998 at 800 to 1,100 feet in elevation and farmed using organically certified materials. They are in the process of conversion to biodynamic farming. Medium ruby in color, it has pure scents of cranberry, burnt orange, desiccated violet, pipe tobacco, tar and forest floor, plus wafts of potpourri. The palate is delicate and super perfumed, with caviar-like bursts of acidity, extraordinarily silky tannins and a tremendously long finish with a fan of floral and spice accents. It's a stunning wine that highlights the potential for top-quality Pinot Noir in the Anderson Valley. Only 458 cases were made.
