Overview: In 1995, Fred Cline purchased two properties in Petaluma, CA located in the Sonoma CoastAVA to grow Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Syrah. Planting began in 1997 on the now namedCatapult and Diamond Pile vineyards.Both Catapult and Diamond Pile Pinot Noir vineyards are planted with Dijon clone 115 andclones 5 and 31, which we blend to create our Fog Swept Pinot Noir. The vineyards are sockedin by lingering morning fog on most summer days, where temperatures can swing up to 27degrees from morning to afternoon. These conditions induce a longer growing season whichenables the grapes to develop the rich California flavors of bright cherry, pomegranate, andwild strawberries, while preserving the fresh acidity and classic earthiness that is synonymouswith Pinot Noir. Fog Swept Pinot Noir attains a perfect balance between old and new worldstyles of Pinot Noir.Tasting Notes:Sumptuous flavors of raspberry, lilacs, and dark chocolate, with subtle hints of vanilla and toasted oak.Pairing: This wine makes an ideal companion to foods like lamb, braised meats, or duck.Points:Format/ABV: 750 ml/14.5%In certain circumstances, a specific vintage may not be available.
