Product Overview
Winery's Notes:
"Sadie’s Vineyard is named for the family’s first German Shepherd, who lived her life blissfully on this 5 acre parcel in beautiful Sebastopol Hills along the chilly Bodega Highway corridor. Shepherd #2, Kodiak, is now in charge of gopher monitoring. As a sweet reward, he gently snags a single ripe grape with his teeth every now and then. The site is planted to some of our favorite clones; Pommard and Dijon 115, and is composed of classic Goldridge soils, renowned for producing spectacular Pinot noir grapes.

Floral and mineral aromas compliment the dark cherry and blueberry cobbler notes in this very pretty wine. It’s deep, round and voluptuous with fine tannins that smooth out and become suave. Herbal, rock, citrus and boysenberry flavors linger with a fun zip on the finish."
