Story

THE VINEYARD: Ernest's cool-climate, maritime-influenced Pinot Noir program now encompasses 5 vineyards. This appellation blend is a captivating example of the style of pinot noir that can be cultivated on the far reaches of the West Sonoma Coast. Retaining natural acidity and exhibiting a restrained fruit expression, this Pinot Noir is an authentic example of what is possible in cooler climates of California. This blend is sourced and crafted 100% from Ernest's core program and does not include any purchased or bulk wine for volume.
