Sea Field Vineyard
Pinot Noir
Our 4.8 Sea Field Vineyard (monopole) produces our most elegant wines year in and year out. This unique bottling comes from an ancient Sea Field of diverse marine soils and fractured bedrock dating back between 66 and 200 million years. Soaring 1,000 feet above the Pacific Ocean and less than 3 miles from its waters, Sea Field is both our most coastal and highest elevation pinot noir site. The combination of these elements creates Sea Field.
Delicate, lifted aromas of rose petals, orange pith, crushed pomegranate, and raspberries, with the essence of where the forest meets the ocean fill the bowl. Wild strawberries, cool-coastal forest, wet rock, sea moss, crushed raspberries and blood orange linger. On the palate, wild strawberries, orange pith, faint violet flowers and distant notes of white tea lead to a seemingly endless finish.
