winemaker's notes:

Gowan Creek is the home of our winery and offers a perfect mid-valley winegrowing location that combines warmer Anderson Valley elements with coastal fog and cooling influences from the northern end of the valley. In 2009, this unique terroir produced a lavish beast of a wine with a lush, round palate and layers of brooding blackberry, dark plum, wild cherry, earth and Asian spice. Intriguing oak-inspired pencil shaving and oatmeal cookie notes add depth and the wine offers great finishing tannins and spice.

alcohol by volume: 14.5%
critical acclaim:

"The richness and quality of this Pinot Noir are instantly striking. It's like a medieval tapestry, intricately woven and velvety, with interlocking flavors of berry, cherry, cola, mushroom, buttered toast and spice. As powerful as it is, it retains a subtlety that’s captivating and elusive. Still, the acids and tannins are strong and unresolved. Cellar this for at least six years. Cellar Selection."

Wine Enthusiast

"Medium-deep ruby color; complex berry and cherry aromas with earthy notes; rich, deep stewed berry and cherry flavors with earthy, savory spice notes; good structure and balance; long finish. This Pinot is complex and well structured—give it plenty of air in the glass to open it up."
