(Robert Parker Score 98) The 2019 Pinot Noir Occidental Station Vineyard has a medium ruby color and a beautiful fragrance of blood orange and red berries with bursts of lilac and wildflowers, plus accents of tobacco leaves, fir and iron. The medium-bodied palate offers generous, grainy tannins and refreshing acidity framing its layered flavors, and it opens to ethereal perfume on the very long finish. Wow!

Each year at harvest, Occidental Station is our first vineyard to be picked. Since the fruit always goes into our fermenters first, it does not enjoy the benefit of large populations of yeast already circulating in the winery. Therefore, it is often the slowest to start and may take over three weeks to complete alcoholic fermentation. The extended time in the fermenter only enhances its expressive personality, which features a vibrant purple color, bright natural acidity, and notes of violet, graphite, and cassis. The Occidental Station pinot noir is distinctly purple in its fruit character, in comparison to the red-fruited Bodega Headlands Vineyards and Running Fence/Bodega Ridge Vineyard wines.
