Story
The grapes were harvested from vineyards within the Carneros appellation of Napa Valley. This is an ideal location for Pinot Noir due to the cooler nature of this region which allows the berries to develop elegant and expressive flavors. Picked in the early morning hours to maintain freshness, the grapes were aged in a combination of new and once used French oak barrels.
