Pinot Noir, Keefer Vineyards, Russian River Valley, Sonoma County
Situated in the coolest area of the Russian River Valley, Keefer Ranch exemplifies sophistication and grace. Founded in 1996 with select clones, this renowned vineyard thrives in the region's mild winds and consistent fog, which lengthen the growing season and promote the maturation of its outstanding fruit. Davies delivers a bespoke expression from this site through this bottle with each vintage, capitalizing on the vineyards ability to have a cool hang time resulting in fruit with outstanding color, extraction, and balanced tannins
