DESCRIPTION
The historic Edmeades Vineyard, located near the town of Philo in Anderson Valley, sits at about 500 feet above sea level with clay soils and good sun exposure. These features encourage grapes to ripen earlier here than in other parts of the valley, minimizing the risk of encountering late-season rainfall. The Calera clone, is a standout here, producing soaring, floral aromatics with ample tannin and backbone.

Winemaker’s Favorite Aspect:
The remote-ness of Anderson Valley, it’s always a breath of fresh air to spend time in the vineyard there
Climate:
Warm days, cool/cold nights, the valley is cooled by the fog that rolls in from the mouth of the Navarro River
Regional Overview:
The mix of valley floor and mountainside fruit produces a dark, yet crunchy and focused Pinot Noir
FOOD PAIRINGS:
Anderson Valley Pinot Noirs pair with cheeses of all sorts - Soft Brie, Camembert, Gruyere – or make some filet mignon crostini's with whipped goat cheese for something a little more substantial.
