2021 Pinot Noir, Mardikian Vineyard
Featured Wine in the Upcoming Spring Allocation
Making its debut at Ram’s Gate with the 2021 vintage, the Mardikian Vineyard is a coastal gem tucked between the towns of
Sebastopol and Occidental. This rugged terroir creates a Pinot Noir that is savory and more nuanced than any we've crafted to date.
The wine is led by the Pommard Clone, which offers a nosebrimming with earthy forest floor, delicate rosehips, and wild strawberries. Complementing this, Clone 114—renowned for itsstructure and focus—provides the backbone needed for a PinotNoir with serious aging potential
