Vineyard Profile
On a stunning hillside vineyard located in the heart of Anderson Valley, Savoy’s Pinot Noir grapes develop intense flavor over a growing season lengthened by the cooling maritime influence that funnels through the valley. A complex patchwork of clonal selections, each block is organically farmed to its own specific needs. Hand-picked at night and trucked to the cellar in the early morning allows for optimum handling and whole berry integrity. The growing conditions in 2018 were near ideal, with moderate summer temperatures resulting in gradual ripening and allowing for nearly 20% whole cluster inclusion. Following extended time in bottle, the 2018 is an elegant, harmonious expression of the Savoy vineyard.
