Pinot Noir

Pinot noir is a red wine grape variety of the species Vitis vinifera. The name may also refer to wines produced predominantly from pinot noir grapes. The name is derived from the french words for pine and black alluding to the varietals tightly clustered dark purple pine cone shaped bunches of fruit.

Pinot noir grapes are grown around the world, but the grape is chiefly associated with the Burgundy region of France. In De re rustica, Columella described a grape variety in Burgundy in the 1st century A.D. that sounds like Pinot noir. It is widely considered to produce some of the finest wines in the world, but is a difficult variety to cultivate and transform into wine.

Food Pairing: Pairs well with chocolate and Gruyere cheese. Try with game fare, ragouts, Peking duck and wild salmon. A classic pairing with Beouf Bourgogne.

Anderson Valley - Esterlina Estate

The 2007 Esterlina Estate Vineyard Pinot Noir is very much like our 2006 Anderson Valley Reserve Pinot Noir—a wine we believe to be among the best we have ever produced. Again, from this vineyard, one is apt to get those ripe black cherry, plum, earthy mushroom and spicy cinnamon flavors, and this wine shows those traits. For as ripe as it is, however, it has more than enough acidity. It ends with the customary very long finish.		$45.00

The flagship wine of Demetria winery does not disappoint. A well crafted Pinot Noir meticulously selected by the clones, oak used and overall structure that is provided. The foundations of the famed Pommard clone exhibits well balanced cherry, black truffle, cola and spices. Lingering on the back of the mouth with deep red fruits, leather and a smokiness texture. Beginning with quality fruit from Sta Rita Hills, fermented dry then aged for 18 months on 75% new french oak, unfined and unfiltered Sandra will only get better with age.		$65.00

2006 Ketcham Estate Ketcham Vineyard Pinot Noir
Ketcham Vineyard, Russian River Valley

This is the first wine we have produced with
grapes exclusively from our vineyard (to say
we are excited is a gross understatement!). The
nose is more intense than the RRV, and more
complex. There is a hint of dark chocolate
wrapped around the signature spice and dark
red fruits. This wine has more explosive flavors
and the chocolate nuances appear on the palate
as well. But this wine screams Russian River
Valley and confirms the profile that we believe
is a hallmark of the vineyard - that is, red
raspberries, cherries and an underlying stream
of spices. The wine has softer tannins and,
although it is approachable now, it will greatly
benefit from a year or two in the cellar. Only 92

Our inaugural Pinot Noir exhibits ideal varietal characteristics of Anderson Valley fruit. Aromas of dried cheerries, spice and smoke lead to seductive flavors of cherry, spice, black cherry cola and a touch of forest floor wrapped in a creamy, rich texture. Full-bodied and complex, this wine will continue to improve with age, but only if you can resist the temptation to dring it all now.		114 cases produced

Sourced from one of the pioneer vineyards in the Carneros region, this wine is a blend of Pinot Noir clones we do not grow in our vineyards at Mahoney.

2005 Pinot Noir "Mahoney Ranch"
Carneros

This wine is pure Carneros, grown in the vineyard across from the winery which has produced some of our favorite wines over the last 30 years. Rarely do individual lots of Pinot Noir express intense fruit and deep structure at the same time, yet these did, showing lovely black cherry notes with a pervasive fusion of perfume, black pepper and allspice in the nose. The wine has ample tannins, well-integrated oak and a lush, supple texture.		$36.00

2005 Pinot Noir "Las Brisas Vineyard"
Carneros

Our vineyard’s name acknowledges the dependable and beneficial Pacific breezes that blow through it from the Petaluma Gap in the coastal range, cooling the vines and producing gradual ripening of the grapes. This vineyard produces pure expressions of ripe, red cherry fruit and spicy notes, making wines with lovely textures and a harmonious integration of fruit with oak. While this wine shows well in its youth, it has enough structure to evolve for several years to come.		$36.00

2006 Van der Kamp Vineyard Pinot Noir
Van der Kamp Vineyard

Our history with the Van der Kamp Vineyard goes way back to 1994, before we started making wine. We placed an advertisement in Wine Country Classifieds looking for Pinot Noir fruit and a vineyard owner that would sell us the grapes by the ton rather than by the acre. We received three responses, one of which was from the Van der Kamps.

2006 Willamette Valley Pinot Noir
Willamette Valley

We have been sourcing grapes from the Willamette Valley for a dozen years now but honestly don't recall a vintage like 2006. Yields were high - potentially too high for the grapes to fully ripen - but ripen they did. In fact, there’s a group of folks that think the 2006 Oregon Pinots are too ripe, too immediately accessible. We don’t agree with that assessment. Perhaps 2003 seemed too ripe to us, but in 2006 the high yields slowed the grapes’ sugar accumulation keeping it in-line with flavor development. This was the best of both worlds with the only potential downside being a dilution of flavors due to the higher yields. To combat this we bled off a significant portion of juice, costing us a great deal of money but making a significantly better wine. The 2006 Willamette Valley Pinot Noir is one of the results of this superb growing season and strict winemaking regime. The 2006 Siduri Willamette Valley Pinot Noir has already received numerous accolades including a 3 1/2 star rating from The Press Democrat and a superb review from Wine Spectator Magazine where it was described this way, “Crisp in texture, with an open feel to the plum and floral aromas and flavors, lingering on the		$19.50

2006 Truett Nolan California Pinot Noir

We went through and tasted numerous different possible blends before we arrived at this combination. We then racked the barrels together by gravity and went back to barrel. All told, we kept this wine in barrel for 16 months and bottled it unfined and unfiltered. The Truett Nolan Pinot Noir is designed to be a wine of great balance with richness
and yet enough backbone and acidity to allow it to age well. It already demonstrated complex red and black fruit flavors as well as hints of herbs and earth. The finish is long, closing down now and only hinting at the overall greatness that the wine possesses. We would imagine this wine would age well for up to 10 years.		192 cases produced

2006 Terra De Promissio Vineyard Pinot Noir
Terra De Promissio

What specifically is Sonoma Coast-ish about this wine? For starters it demonstrates the forest floor, mushroom-like aromas that are so common to Sonoma Coast designated wines. It also has good levels of natural acidity - a product perhaps of the cool, windswept Petaluma Gap area (and the rightful appellation of the vineyard although it is not yet recognized by the government). This acid accentuates the tangy raspberry fruit in the wine. And, finally, this wine performed best with only a kiss of new oak (15%) rounding out the finish but allowing the character of the vineyard to shine through.		491 cases produced

2006 Russian River Valley Pinot Noir
Russian River Valley

We took a different approach in coming up with the final blend for the 2006 Russian River Pinot Noir. Historically, we have blended all of the remaining barrels from each of our Russian River sites and then subtracted varying parts from the blend. This year we tasted each section from each vineyard blind and came up with different possible blends. This procedure is more time consuming, and definitely leads to a more strict selection (for example, we left out some pretty high profile sections including the 777 from the Keefer Ranch and all of the remaining barrels from the Amber Ridge Vineyard. These lots found their way into the Sonoma County bottling), but we ultimately felt that it produced a far better wine.		789 cases produced

2006 Sonoma County Pinot Noir
Sonoma County

The Sonoma County Pinot Noir is a blend of five different vineyards scattered from the far western edge of the Russian River Valley to Sonoma Mountain. Specifically, the wine is a blend of 33% Sapphire Hill Pinot Noir, 25% Van der Kamp, 23% Lewis, 13% Amber Ridge, and 6% Keefer Ranch fruit. This also makes the wine a blend of multiple Pinot Noir clones – including 115, 667, 777, 828, Martini, and a rather old but unidentified clone of Pinot Noir grown up at the Van der Kamp site. Given this diversity of material and location we should be able to make a wine that is at least somewhat entertaining. In 2006, we went beyond entertainment and produced a wine that is both complex and satisfying.

The 2006 Sonatera Vineyard Pinot Noir is certainly as successful and the past releases and perhaps even
surpasses them. It is a blend of 32% Pommard clone with the remainder equally spread out between 115,
667, and 777 clones. The wine was aged in 81% new French oak for ten months and, once again, bottled
without fining or filtration. Despite its low alcohol (at least these days—it is only 13.6%), the 2006 Sonatera Pinot Noir is one of our darkest and most extracted Pinots. With blackberry, blueberry, and even hints of pepper and chocolate this impressive Pinot Noir drinks well now but will undoubtedly cellar well for 5+ years.		486 cases produced

There is truly something magical about these two fantastic vineyards. On their own they certainly produce two of our most distinctive and highly reviewed wines. And when blended together the wine that is produced, this wine - the 2006 Siduri Sta. Rita Hills Pinot Noir - produces something altogether different than the vineyards separately. The 2006 Siduri Sta. Rita Hills Pinot Noir is a blend of 66% Cargasacchi Vineyard Pinot Noir and 34% Clos Pepe fruit. The wine was fermented in a combination of tanks and oneton bins using a significant percentage of whole clusters (this is particularly true on the Cargasacchi part of the blend). Aged in 50% new French oak for 10 months, the wine was ultimately bottled without fining or filtration in August of 2007.		280 cases produced

This blend is the winemakers’ most personal expression.The alluring aromas of vine-ripened blackberries, lilac and sandalwood converge with exotic east-Asian spices and earth elements to produce an amazingly complex wine.

Located north of Philo, Rich Savoy has been farming Pinot Noir from this vineyard in the Anderson Valley for 20 years. We vinify 5 clones of Pinot Noir (Calera, Dijon 113,115, Martini 13 and Pommard) separately and select only the best barrels for our single vineyard wine. Our Savoy Pinot Noir is deeply colored with complex blackberry, mineral and orange peel notes. It tends to be earthier than its counterparts from the Russian River or Sonoma Coast. This massively structured wine will evolve more slowly than our other Pinots, but will offer great reward with 6-8 years of patience.
