Thanksgiving Wine Trio
The perfect pairings for a classic Thanksgiving dinner. Pinot Noir is a turkey's best friend — and don't forget the Chardonnay.
Spotlight Pinot Noir 2022
Spotlight Vineyard, Los Carneros, Napa Valley
An elegant Pinot Noir with bright, mouth-watering acidity and aromas of cherry, raspberry, cranberry and orange zest. These Pinot Noir grapes were harvested during the 2022 growing season at our Spotlight Vineyard, which is our southernmost vineyard in the Napa Valley, in the Los Carneros appellation. With its proximity to the San Francisco Bay, this vineyard is cooled by wind and fog, making it an excellent location for growing Pinot Noir grapes.
Marquee Pinot Noir 2022
Marquee Vineyard, Russian River Valley
This 2022 Russian River Valley Pinot Noir is perfectly clean and precise, featuring vibrant aromas of ripe berry. Cranberry, boysenberry and layered baking spices complement the alluring hint of vanilla. A pleasing tension on the palate finishes with inspiring length and integrated tannins. These Pinot Noir grapes were harvested during the 2022 growing season at our Marquee Vineyard in the Russian River Valley, an ideal region to grow Pinot Noir grapes. Warm, sunny days are frequently cooled by evening fog. The prevailing climate allows grapes to ripen slowly, allowing our winemaker to create nuanced and complex wines with deeply concentrated flavors and aromas. The extraction of color and tannins throughout the primary fermentation help richen the wine for the 6 month oak barrel aging.
Showtime Chardonnay 2022
Showtime Vineyard, Oak Knoll, Napa Valley
Aromas of citrus and delicate white blossoms give way to flavors of lemon zest, nectarine and white pear. A perfect balance between elegance and richness makes for a medium-bodied, mouth-filling wine. These grapes were grown in the Oak Knoll District of Napa Valley, filled with foggy mornings, sunny days and cool nights, the ideal weather for long growing seasons.
