(4/2025) Two words: Amazingly delicious. Ryan Alfaro made just 97 cases of this single-vineyard Pinot from his family's organically-farmed 'Trout Gulch' vineyard. Fermented entirely using whole clusters and raised in used French oak barrels, this Pinot Noir is light in color with a slight haze. Brimming with fresh red fruits, red earth, minerals, subtle baking spice, and organic material, this youthful Pinot Noir is taut and full of energy. Dense and lifted, it is a serious wine that deserves several years in the cellar.
