Our vineyard’s name acknowledges the dependable and beneficial Pacific breezes that blow through it from the Petaluma Gap in the coastal range, cooling the vines and producing gradual ripening of the grapes. This vineyard produces pure expressions of ripe, red cherry fruit and spicy notes, making wines with lovely textures and a harmonious integration of fruit with oak. While this wine shows well in its youth, it has enough structure to evolve for several years to come.

This wine is pure Carneros, grown in the vineyard across from the winery which has produced some of our favorite wines over the last 30 years. Rarely do individual lots of Pinot Noir express intense fruit and deep structure at the same time, yet these did, showing lovely black cherry notes with a pervasive fusion of perfume, black pepper and allspice in the nose. The wine has ample tannins, well-integrated oak and a lush, supple texture.
