2025 Spring Release
Vineyard Profile
Dierke’s organically certified hillside vineyard is nestled just off Bodega Highway within a diverse habitat of fruit trees, vegetable gardens, and beneficial plants. Notoriously exuberant and powerful, like the grower himself, the Dierke vineyard teems with life every season. In 2022, the Dierke vineyard saw lower yields, with compact clusters and deeply concentrated fruit character. To preserve fruit purity, these beautiful berries were fully destemmed, and we chose to age the fragrant juice for 17 months in both barrel and puncheon, with one-third new tight-grained French oak. This bold and powerful Pinot Noir has developed gracefully with an additional year of bottle age prior to release.
