    Winemaker Notes

    Steelhead Sonoma County Pinot Noir is a fresh, bright melange of red fruits on the nose, highlighting dark cherry and dried strawberry. The palate enters with cranberry and bright cherry with a hint of spice and a light, subtle kiss of oak. This medium bodied pinot has classic old world elegance and balance making it extremely versatile.

    This Pinot pairs well with richer seafood, poultry and other meats.

    The Steelhead brand began as a tribute to steelhead and Coho salmon and our commitment to restoring their habitats in Northern California waterways. Working with state and university organizations as well as Trout Unlimited, our restoration efforts include, rebuilding spawning grounds within creek beds that have led to the return of Steelhead trout during the spring. The successful restoration of these watersheds has inspired others to do the same.

    Thin-skinned, finicky and temperamental, Pinot Noir is also one of the most rewarding grapes to grow and remains a labor of love for some of the greatest vignerons in Burgundy. Fairly adaptable but highly reflective of the environment in which it is grown, Pinot Noir prefers a cool climate and requires low yields to achieve high quality. Outside of France, outstanding examples come from in Oregon, California and throughout specific locations in wine-producing world. Somm Secret—André Tchelistcheff, California’s most influential post-Prohibition winemaker decidedly stayed away from the grape, claiming “God made Cabernet. The Devil made Pinot Noir.”

    Home to a diverse array of smaller AVAs with varied microclimates and soil types, Sonoma County has something for every wine lover. Physically twice as large as Napa Valley, the region only produces about half the amount of wine but boasts both tremendous quality and variety. With its laid-back atmosphere and down-to-earth attitude, the wineries of Sonoma are appreciated by wine tourists for their friendliness and approachability. The entire county intends to become a 100% sustainable winegrowing region by 2019.

    Sonoma County wines are produced with carefully selected grape varieties to reflect the best attributes of their sites—Dry Creek Valley’s consistent sunshine is ideal for Zinfandel, while the warm Alexander Valley is responsible for rich, voluptuous red wines like Cabernet Sauvignon. Chardonnay and Pinot Noir are important throughout the county, most notably in the cooler AVAs of Russian River, Sonoma Coast and Carneros. Sauvignon Blanc, Merlot and Syrah have also found a firm footing here.
