The organically grown grapes from the 5 acre vineyard, are meticiculously grown, and the quality is always stunning. As in past vintages, the wine shows the racy, berry fruit, and Oriental spice character that is mouth-filling, and shows has the signature Pinot character of the region in its best possible interpretation. 

Fresh, lively and dry, this elegant rosé of Pinot Noir has wonderful berry/strawberry fruit and spice. It is charming as a welcoming wine but delightful with roast chicken, quiche, Indian dishes and pasta with a light, white cream sauce.

Year after year this wine hits the mark, but 2015 is one of the best! Again, it shows the racy, berry fruit and Oriental spice character that is mouth-filling. From organically grown grapes in Russian River Valley, the wine has the signature Pinot character of the region in its best possible interpetation. 

Jim Clendenen has a creative, curious mind and that means he likes to explore outside the confines of the Burgundian world. Vita Nova is his brand for Bordeaux varieties. From Bien Nacido Vineyard, our Merlot has deep berry fruit with hints of dried herbs. Twenty months in barrel have reigned in the tannins.

This is a Bordeaux blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot, approximately one third each. Aged about 24 months in barrel, it received all the necessary TLC in the cellar to create a dark, rich red that has benefited from bottle age.
