This magnificent 16-acre marine sedimentary shallow sandy soil terroir is owned by the Hill family and farmed by Bergstrom Wines in partnership since its inception. Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from this amazing site are known for their depth of spice, rare woods, incense and oceanic salinity aromatics and for their rich textural layers of fruited spice and earthy minerality. These are seriously age worthy wines.

Blueberry and blue plum lead, layered with Chinese five spice, incense, rare woods, and dark chocolate. Silky and finely textured, it shows notes of forest floor, matsutake, sweet spice, and tobacco box, framed by fine tannins and impressive finesse.

"Has a jeweled medium-red hue and a more savory character. It opens with notes of red cherries, cinnamon spice, porcini mushrooms, cherry pit, and dark stones, with ripe tannins and a mossy earth undertone. Despite its savory depth and umami undertones, it remains pure and lifted, with refreshing acidity, a supple, silky texture, and ripe tannins. Medium-bodied and never turning astringent, it finishes long and floral."
