It’s nice to have a vineyard with a view; that slight elevation gives a vineyard better drainage and thus an earlier bud break and a longer, more flavorful growing season. People love to be able to see the ocean; that wind, fog, and marine influence create perfect growing conditions for Pinot Noir. Although I only craft one wine, it is a blend of three—and sometimes four—vineyards. These different sites, all within two miles of one-another, guard the southern “gateway” of Napa where the cool breeze and fog from San Francisco Bay gets channeled into the Napa Valley itself. The vineyards I pull from then have their own individuality, but they all fall within this little corner of Napa that has perfect conditions for Pinot Noir. Cab doesn’t stand a chance down here.
