Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

This wine showcases a deep plum red tone in the glass. Fragrances of orange peel, red cherries and fresh peppercorn linger on the nose. The palate is bright and dynamic with a sinuous texture and racy acidity. Flavors of cranberry, sassafras and a touch of clove combine for a wine with an incredible spectrum of flavors and subtlety.

    Brack Mountain Wine Company’s chief winemaker Dan Fitzgerald drew on the Ferrington Vineyard in Booneville and another cooler site near Navarro to make this supple, elastic, modest pinot noir. He fermented it without added yeasts, 30 percent whole cluster. It’s full of tart red grapefruit and silkier red strawberry flavors as well as a hint of that forest-floor scent that makes the best Anderson Valley pinot noirs so appetizing. Immediately delicious and precisely focused, it will please both novices and wine geeks at a holiday dinner.

Anderson Valley, located in Mendocino County just above Sonoma County, is one of California’s coolest AVAs, allowing it a long growing season. Only 15 miles long, the region makes a slice eastward through the mountains, from the frigid Pacific Ocean. Dramatic diurnal temperature variations here preserve grape acidity and thus freshness in the finished wines. These are prime conditions for growing Pinot Noir, and the valley produces many fine versions. Characteristics of Anderson Valley Pinot Noir typically include crisp acidity, cranberry and strawberry notes as well as earthy notes of forest floor and mushroom.

Still Pinot Noir, however, is only part of the story. Pinot Noir, along with Chardonnay, are also grown for Anderson Valley’s exceptional sparkling wines. Produced via the traditional method, these offer a classic toasty note from lees aging, bright, complex fruit notes and a clean, refreshing character.
