This estate wine reflects these exceptional conditions, resulting in a Pinot Noir of remarkable depth and elegance. The nose of this wine reveals an enticing medley of ripe cherry and mocha, complemented by earthy forest floor and a touch of minerality. Light vanilla adds a delicate sweetness to the aromatic profile. On the palate, vivid Bing cherry and blackberry are intertwined with hints of anise, creating a rich, inky texture. Bright acidity lifts the wine, while silky tannins provide a smooth structure. The finish is juicy and long, leaving a refreshing impression that showcases a perfect harmony of fruit, spice and finesse. This wine is ready to enjoy now or can be cellared for an additional 2-4 years.

Owsley, our closest estate vineyard to the Pacific, experiences dramatic temperature swings, with warm days and cool, foggy nights. This dynamic climate, shaped by the Bloomfield Gap, enhances fruit complexity and concentration. Spanning 90 acres of Goldridge sandy loam, Owsley grows both Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, with ten dedicated Pinot Noir blocks. Ten unique blocks of fruit are dedicated to our Pinot Noir.
Hand-picked at night and sorted by hand, the grapes were gently destemmed before cold soaking and fermentation in small open-top stainless-steel tanks. After fermentation, the wine aged for 14 months in 100% French oak, using a mix of new, one-year and two-year-old barrels. The final blend was assembled, bottled, and rested for six months before release.

Owsley Ranch is the newest of Sonoma-Cutrer’s vineyards. Its 90 acres of Goldridge sandy loam is planted with both Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Owsley Ranch is highly influenced by the cold fog coming through the Bloomfield Gap, as it is our closest vineyard to the Pacific Ocean. The vineyard straddles a valley that offers multiple sun exposures on either side with the Atascadero Creek cutting through the south side.
