2022 Zotovich Vineyard Pinot Noir

Zotovich Vineyard is an acclaimed, family-owned vineyard in the Sta. Rita Hills, west of Rideau and only a few miles from the Pacific coast. The vines at this iconic site revealed to us a perfect expression of cool-climate Burgundian fruit. Sandy soils and misty mornings make for an elegant, spicy Pinot with black cherry, graphite, and fine-grained tannic structure.
