RESERVE - 2024 Pinot Noir
Sourced from the esteemed Montgomery Vineyard along Olivet Road in the heart of the Russian River Valley, our 2024 Reserve Pinot Noir represents the most meticulous expression of the vintage. With only 25 cases produced, this is a rare and deliberate selection crafted for collectors and true Pinot enthusiasts.
Composed entirely of 100% free-run juice, this Reserve captures the purest and most delicate expression of the fruit. Native yeast fermentation allows the vineyard’s voice to speak unfiltered, while aging in 70% new French oak lends structure, depth, and refined spice without overshadowing its natural elegance.
The aromatics are profound and layered - black cherry and wild blackberry unfold alongside fragrant herbs and a subtle thread of anise. A lifted floral nuance adds grace, while hints of sweet cherry compote and freshly baked pie crust evoke warmth and quiet opulence.
On the palate, the wine is concentrated yet impeccably polished. Dark red and black fruits are framed by finely woven tannins and a savory undercurrent that speaks to its Olivet Road origins. The elevated new oak integration brings notes of clove, vanilla bean, and toasted spice, carried by a silky texture into a long, resonant finish.
Powerful yet poised, this 2024 Reserve Pinot Noir is both cellar-worthy and captivating in its youth - a true statement of site, intention, and craftsmanship.
