Afforded one of the coolest growing seasons in California, the vineyard is only a few miles inland from the great Pacific. Taking advantage of the unique east-west valley from the Morro Bay, warm summer days are cooled by fog and coastal breezes, allowing the fruit to leisurely ripen on the vine. The mature fruit brings even, full ripeness each vintage, along with balanced acid and sugar levels, helping in Christian's effort to make the best Pinot Noir possible.

“This Pinot Noir is supple and intensely concentrated, balanced nicely by smooth but young tannins. Black cherry and dark raspberry notes are present, along with a surprising dash of nutmeg and hazelnut. It rounds out clean and purely varietal, with a lengthy finish”
Winemaker, Christian Roguenant
