2022 Chalk Hill Estate Pinot Noir, Russian River Valley

“Chalk Hill Estate sits on undulating hills between the cool Russian River appellation and the warmer Alexander Valley. This idyllic spot gives us an unbelievable range of microclimates, soils, and exposures. It’s a complex terroir that demands site-specific farming as we match each varietal to the conditions it likes best. We are deeply committed to the preservation of the native foliage, and our 350 acres planted to vineyard are woven in and among 850 additional acres of undeveloped grassland and heritage oak forests.” - Darrell Holbrook, Winemaker
