Winemaker Notes

Gorgeous aromas of earthy mushroom and fresh raspberry are highlighted by notes of fresh violet and ripe plum. The palate expands to include a savory abundance of red currant, dark cherry, rich mocha and wild strawberry on a long, velvety finish.

    One of the best Pinot Noir deals in the marketplace, the 2014 Moobuzz Pinot Noir drinks smooth and easy. This wine exhibits pleasing red fruit and savory spice flavors. Its balance and finish suggest a pair with fresh salmon sashimi. (Tasted: August 11, 2017, San Francisco, CA)

Moobuzz, California

Moobuzz, from the land of milk and honey, crafts Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from California’s Central Coast, a wine region worthy of discovery. This coastal vibe is often more remote than one might imagine, full of rugged valleys and ridges, buzzing bees and baby calves in the distance. The sun moves slowly across the sky and starts its descent into the Pacific. Cool and refreshing, the salt infused wind settles in on the coast, as the grape vines slowly evolve. Ripening slowly on Monterey’s breezy hillsides, Moobuzz wines are whimsically elegant…deliciously seductive.

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.”

Central Coast, California

A geographic and climatic paradise for grape vines, Monterey is a part of the greater Central Coast AVA and contains within it five smaller sub-appellations, including Arroyo Seco, San Lucas, San Bernabe, Hames Valley and the famous Santa Lucia Highlands. The climate is relatively warm but tempered by cool, coastal winds, allowing the regions in Monterey County an exceptionally long growing season. Bud break often happens two weeks sooner and harvest tends to be two weeks later compared to other surrounding regions.

Monterey’s coastal side, where the cooling ocean fog allows grapes to develop a perfect sugar-acid balance, excels in the production of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Riesling. Warmer, inland subzones are home to fleshy, concentrated and full-bodied reds like Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Zinfandel.

Chardonnay, covering about 40% of vineyard acreage, is the most widely planted grape in all of Monterey County.
