Hollister-Edna Ranch Pinot Noir
WINEMAKER NOTES
Located in the heart of Edna Valley and named after the iconic California family who played a prominent role in the history of our valley from their ranch on this property. The Hollister portion of our home vineyard, Edna Ranch, produces fruit that showcases this Pinot Noir. The Hollister vineyard has a series of rolling hills optimizing the sun exposure hitting mid slope and allowing the Pinot Noir grapes to ripen fully with concentrated flavors. Hollister is the closest vineyard in Edna Ranch to the Pacific Ocean; a mere 5 miles, thus Hollister receives a moderating influence helping the grapes maintain balanced acidity. This wine is made with traditional techniques allowing the character of this exceptional terroir to shine through.
