(Wine Advocate Score 91+) From a hillside site, the backwards, structured 2014 Pinot Noir Home Vineyard offers lots of minerality as well as notes of scrub brush, resinous herbs, spring flowers and assorted red and black fruits. It has serious tannin, yet also beautiful mid-palate depth, purity of fruit and length. Forget bottles for 4-5 years and enjoy over the following decade.

The Home Vineyard was the first of Rhys’ seven estate vineyards. Originally planted in 1995 and expanded in 1998, it was initially just a 1/4 acre in size. For many years our Home Vineyard production was just a single barrel or 24 cases of wine. Fortunately in 2007 we were able to acquire the adjacent hillside and expand the vineyard to 1.3 acres. The new acreage is planted very densely at 4’x4.5′ to the low vigor 420A rootstock and a field selection of heritage and suitcase clones. After years of experimentation, we have learned that the Home Vineyard produces its best wine from 100% Whole Cluster fermentations and minimal new oak influence. This hands-off approach allows its layered, elegant earthy character to really shine.
