2007 SEGUE FILIGREEN VINEYARD PINOT NOIR

140 cases

I’m especially proud that my 2007 Segue Filigreen Vineyard is the first eco-friendly, purely chemical-free wine produced from an Anderson Valley, Mendocino single vineyard Pinot Noir. It is created only from grapes grown without any synthetic herbicides, pesticides or fertilizers. Juicy, full of pure, ripe red and black berry flavors and intensely flavorful, the Filigreen Vineyard has been fermented with wild yeast and aged for 11 months in premium French oak. It come from the vineyard of Chris and Stephanie Tebbutt, who grow all their fruit—grapes, blueberries, peaches and more— using Biodynamic techniques that ensure that everything is produced organically in harmony with nature’s cycles. The vines love it! They flourish, grow hearty and deliver luscious juice that I carefully handcraft into layered Pinot Noir with as little manipulation as possible. Minimal sulfites are added to prevent spoilage, and that’s it. The Filigreen Vineyard’s bright, juicy red cherry vibrancy balances its luxurious dark berry lushness, while a hint of earthy molasses adds depth, making this wine a mouth-watering complement to food.

Serve through 2012.
