Description

The Anderson Valley is in a narrow valley carved out by years of erosion from the Navarro River. As the river runs through the valley and empties into the ocean, it cuts through the mountains to allow the cold ocean wind and coastal fog to creep in. The wine shows its cool-climate origins in bright acidity, accenting the rich flavors of wild strawberries, black cherries and plum. Firm minerality grounds the wine with firm tannins and a silkiness on the finish.

RECENT TASTING NOTES
A nearly opaque ruby, the 2021 Pinot Noir Jackson Estate Anderson Valley takes on layers of ripe black cherries, pine sap, and purple flowers. Generous and mouth-filling, it’s fruit-forward on the palate, with fresh notes of ripe berries, tea leaf, and fresh forest floor, but its meaty structure comes through, and it has a good finish with ripe tannins and warming spice. Drink over the next 5-7 years.
