Bread & Butter Pinot Noir 2021

Bread & Butter Pinot Noir 2021

Grapes are sourced from vineyards in Sonoma County, Carneros AVA and Monterey County, Arroyo Seco AVA. The grapes are Pommard and 777 clones, and all malolactic fermentation is done with natural yeasts. The wine is aged for 8~10 months in new French oak barrels and one year old barrels.


Rich flavors of fresh fruit such as raspberry and cassis are expressed with soft oak nuances. Beautifully long and smooth finish.

Bread & Butter is a reference to the craft of winemaking. Bread = Oak. Butter = Malolactic Fermentation. The type of oak, origin, producer, level of toast, time on oak, and racking all play a vital role in developing bread-like flavors and texture of the wine. Butter characters come from malolactic fermentation. The conversion of malic acid to lactic acid produces rich, buttery flavors and changes the texture of the wine to be more creamy and soft. These factors work together to best compliment the complexity of fruit and expression of terroir produced in the vineyard.
