Winemaker Notes:
"Sure to be a favorite with pinot lovers, this vintage of Knoll balances bright red fruit aromas with more complex earthy aromas. This contrast continues on the palate as the firm tannin structure frames exciting raspberry flavors. Nuances of vanilla, earth, and spice join the party as the wine stretches into a long dreamy finish. Food friendly is an understatement – this wine is ready to bring Greek style lamb chops, stuffed mushrooms, or baked farro with roasted vegetables to life. Drink your first bottle today but cellar that second bottle for a special treat in a couple years."
About the Vineyard:
"Husch Vineyards planted the first Pinot Noir vines in the Anderson Valley back in 1971 on a special piece of land known as “The Knoll.” Overlooking the Navarro River, the old vines thrive on a south-facing outcrop of sandstone with shale lenses and excellent drainage. The cool night air, morning fog, and afternoon sun slowly ripen small berries with excellent concentration and developed structure. The Knoll consistently produces high quality Pinot Noir due to the microclimate, unique soil, vine age, and pedigree."
