This most complex Pinot Noir will create lasting memories. Dried black cherry, black raspberry and terroir are wrapped together to create a classic Pinot Noir. An equal part blend of the Estate Vineyard in Soquel, Coast Grade Vineyard in Ben Lomond Mountain, and the Regan Vineyards in Corralitos- strecthing the boundaries of our appelation.
Sourced from the Coast Grade Vineyard, this Pinot Noir blends clones 828, 115, 667, and Pommard, planted atop a limestone slab with sandy topsoil. With yields of only 1 to 1.5 tons per acre, the vineyard produces a wine with earthy complexity and deep concentration, setting it apart from typical California Pinot Noirs.
The wine bursts with pomegranate and blood orange, complemented by Mediterranean herbs and a hint of cocoa. Subtle oak nuances carry through to a well-balanced, fragrant finish. Completing the Partner’s Series, this Pinot Noir is a true reflection of the craftsmanship and distinct terroir shared by Jon Morgan, Peter, and Paul Bargetto.

The result is a stunning Pinot Noir that opens with a complex nose of ripe strawberry, rhubarb, and a touch of cinnamon. On the palate, a full body transitions to vibrant acidity, revealing flavors of cocoa butter and rose petal. Subtle tannins provide a smooth, velvet finish. Elegantly crafted and carefully farmed, this wine is a pure reflection of its exceptional terroir, evolving beautifully in the glass and bottle.
